Microscopy,
a vast field of applications
Watchmaking and industry
Microscopes are essential in many industries for quality control, precision assembly and research. In watchmaking and microtechnology, stereomicroscopes are used for the careful handling of small parts with extreme precision, as they offer depth perception to the user. Episcopic illumination highlights the details of metal surfaces for rigorous inspection. Bright and dark field techniques, as well as phase contrast, enable in-depth examination of translucent or opaque materials. Confocal microscopes are also increasingly used in industry for 3D surface inspection, offering high resolution and the ability to analyze materials layer by layer, which is particularly useful for microelectronics and composite materials. These systems can detect microscopic defects that would be invisible with traditional microscopy techniques.
Life Sciences
In biology and medical research laboratories, microscopes are essential for observing cells, tissues and living organisms. Fluorescence microscopes are used to identify specific markers inside cells using fluorescent proteins. Phase contrast enables the visualization of living cells without staining, revealing details otherwise invisible. Confocal microscopes are particularly valuable for 3D imaging of biological samples, enabling in-depth study of cellular structures with exceptional resolution. DIC (Differential Interferential Contrast) is also used to observe transparent structures, enhancing contrast without the need for staining..
Education
In educational establishments, microscopes are used to introduce students to the fundamentals of biology. Classic bright-field optical microscopes are the most common, offering a clear view of samples for learning the basics of microscopy. Stereomicroscopes, on the other hand, enable 3D observation of larger objects such as insects or minerals. Episcopic and diascopic illumination enable a variety of observation methods, enriching the educational experience.
