Microscope Notes • Resolving Power: The ability to show separate objects as distinct. • Depth of Field: Refers to the thickness of an image that is in focus at any one time. Smaller depth of field larger depth of field
Types of microscope • Simple: Has the lowest level of magnification. Uses one lens and a mirror as a light source.
Compound: Uses two or more lenses and have greater magnification ability. Eyepiece magnification = 10X Highest Power Lens = 40X Total Highest power = 10 X 40 = 400X
Electron: These use an electron beam to scan or pass through a sample in order to produce an image. They can achieve magnifications of up to 10,000,000 X
Effects of Magnification on the Field of View (FOV): • The highest the magnification, the smallest the field diameter will be. Low power lens : Field Diameter = 4000 μm Medium power lens : Field Diameter = 1600 μm High power lens: Field Diameter = 400 μm
