Optical Perspectives Group is pleased to announce new Python based software for the Point Source Microscope (PSM) called PSM Align. From now on all PSMs will be shipped with PSM Align.
Microscope Objective Adapters
$200.00
These adapters are compatible with most major brands of infinity-corrected microscope objectives.
Description
The standard PSM ships with a Nikon objective (shown here as NIK C60) and an adapter with M25 x 0.75 threads. The MIT adapter is for Mitutoyo objective with M26 x 36 threads/inch (TPI), and the RMS is for many older objectives with Royal Microscope Society threads, 0.800” x 36 TPI. The C mount adapter mates with Edmund Optics objectives and lens tubes with 1.000” c 32 TPI, and the THOR adapter mates with Thorlabs SM1 threads (1.035” x 40 TPI) in their lens tubes.
These last 2 adapters are useful for adding other optics in front of the PSM or using a simple doublet to get a longer working distance objective. The PSM has a 100 mm efl tube lens so a 100 mm efl doublet will give 1:1 magnification. The standard Nikon 10x objective gives 5x magnification with the PSM.
The adapters are held in the PSM by 4 set screws, two on either side of the PSM body. A 2.5 mm hex wrench is used to loosen the M3 set screws.
