Product Overview

The Olympus BH2-PA is a polarizing intermediate attachment that integrates a rotating analyzer and a Bertrand lens into a single unit for the BH2 series microscopes. The rotating analyzer provides 360° adjustment for crossed-polarizer configuration and extinction angle measurement. The integrated Bertrand lens enables conoscopic observation — by inserting the Bertrand lens into the optical path, the back focal plane of the objective is imaged, revealing interference figures that are diagnostic for optical axis determination, crystal system identification, and sign of birefringence measurement. The BH2-PA is an essential accessory for advanced petrographic and mineralogical analysis on BH2 series microscopes.
