ZEISS Maximum Birefringence Projector
From the Solutions Lab for mineralogy using light microscopes
Highlights
Area of Research:
- Natural Resources
Sample Types:
- Crystals with mineralization
Related Solutions:
- Thin section permeability prediction

Scan of crossed-polarized light microscope, showing a random orientation of optical indicatrix with the optical axis. If the relative orientation of the polarizer/analyzer pair and the sample is rotated, maximal birefringence information can be extracted.

Maximal birefringence representation of the light microscopy data ideally represented for automated classification using machine learning.
