Las Aventuras De Ulises
Eyepiece Lens: the lens at the top that you look through. They are usually 10X or 15X power.
Tube: Connects theeyepiece to the objective lenses
Arm: Supports the tube and connects it to the base
Base: The bottom of the microscope, used for support
Illuminator: A steady light source (110 volts)used in place of a mirror. If your microscope has a mirror, it is used to reflect light from an external light source up through the bottom of the stage.
Stage: The flat platform where you placeyour slides. Stage clips hold the slides in place. If your microscope has a mechanical stage, you will be able to move the slide around by turning two knobs. One moves it left and right, the othermoves it up and down.
Revolving Nosepiece or Turret: This is the part that holds two or more objective lenses and can be rotated to easily change power.
Objective Lenses: Usually you will find 3or 4 objective lenses on a microscope. They almost always consist of 4X, 10X, 40X and 100X powers. When coupled with a 10X (most common) eyepiece lens, we get total magnifications of 40X (4X times10X), 100X , 400X and 1000X. To have good resolution at 1000X, you will need a relatively sophisticated microscope with an Abbe condenser. The shortest lens is the lowest power, the longest one is...
