Light microscopy is the principal method of biomedical research and materials inspection. Skilful handling of the modern microscopes from Carl Zeiss is a key to your success in these fields. You will learn to master the major techniques of microscopy (Koehler illumination, brightfield, darkfield, phase contrast). You will be enabled to decide positively which of these techniques will be optimum for a particular application.
  • The microscope – design, beam path, functions and handling
  • Koehler illumination and light sources
  • Objective types
  • Key applications of light microscopy in practice
  • Care and maintenance
