In differential interference contrast (DIC) microscopy, the condenser prism acts as a beamsplitter that introduces a precise angular shear between two polarized light wavefronts before they pass through the specimen — the objective-side prism then recombines them, converting the optical path differences caused by specimen refractive index and thickness gradients into amplitude contrast. Because DIC prisms must be precisely matched to the numerical aperture and optical geometry of the objective they are paired with, the WI-DIC60HR is specifically engineered for the 60x water immersion objective, ensuring optimal shear distance, wavefront matching, and maximum spatial resolution at this magnification. The WI-UCD universal condenser is designed to house multiple DIC prisms in a revolving turret, allowing rapid switching between objective-matched prisms without removing the condenser. Built to Olympus factory specifications, the WI-DIC60HR delivers consistent, high-contrast DIC performance at 60x magnification in water immersion configurations.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003chr\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"font-family:'Segoe UI Emoji', sans-serif;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e🔎 Typical Applications\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePatch-clamp electrophysiology — 60x water immersion DIC imaging of neurons in live brain slices for targeted whole-cell recording\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eLive cell imaging at 60x — high-resolution observation of organelles, membrane dynamics, and subcellular structures without staining\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eNeuroscience — resolving fine dendritic spines, axonal processes, and synaptic structures at 60x magnification\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eEmbryology and developmental biology — high-resolution tracking of cell division and structural changes in transparent specimens\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAny WI-UCD condenser setup requiring a 60x-matched high resolution DIC condenser prism\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003chr\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"font-family:'Segoe UI Emoji', sans-serif;\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e📊 Key Specifications\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ctable\u003e\n\u003ctbody\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSpecification\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDetails\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eOlympus Part Number\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eWI-DIC60HR\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eType\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eDIC Condenser Prism (Beamsplitter) — High Resolution\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eMatched Objective\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e60x water immersion\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eCompatible Condenser\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eOlympus WI-UCD universal condenser\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eIllumination Mode\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eTransmitted Light DIC\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eCountry of Origin\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eJapan\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eHS Code\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e901190\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eCondition\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eNew \/ OEM\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/tbody\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e\n\u003chr\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"font-family:'Segoe UI Emoji', sans-serif;\"\u003e\u003cem\u003eUniversities and research institutions are welcome to purchase using an official purchase order.
