Resolve finer detail with high numerical aperture

A high numerical aperture (NA 0.90) at 100× magnification substantially increases optical resolution and light‑gathering capacity. This objective provides clearer contrast and finer structural detail compared with lower‑NA optics, which helps when distinguishing sub‑cellular structures, fine surface textures or micro‑features on materials. The high NA also supports demanding illumination techniques by allowing more efficient light transmission, resulting in brighter images without forcing higher exposure levels. In practical terms, the improved resolving power reduces the need for repeated imaging passes, supporting faster inspection cycles and greater throughput.

Consistent colour and a flat field for reliable imaging

The plan‑apochromatic correction ensures minimal chromatic and spherical aberration across the field of view, delivering a flat image with accurate colour rendition from centre to edge. Combined with the infinity‑corrected design, the optical system maintains performance when used with intermediate optics or tube lenses, which is particularly useful for digital imaging chains and camera attachments. This stability in image quality simplifies measurement and documentation tasks, because results remain consistent across different setups and when performing comparative analyses over time.

Straightforward integration and secure mounting

Mechanical compatibility is simplified by the standard M26 thread, allowing secure attachment to compatible nosepieces and third‑party adapters. The specified 10.6 mm working distance gives a practical clearance between the objective front lens and the sample, balancing depth of field with access for micro‑manipulation or lighting accessories. This objective lens integrates well into existing benches and inspection stations, reducing adaptation time and the need for custom hardware. For system planners, the clear specification of mount, magnification and working distance enables confident selection for both new microscope builds and retrofits.

FAQ

What level of detail can be expected with this objective?
The Euromex AX.8100 objective, an infinity‑corrected plan‑apochromatic 100×/0.90 lens, permits high‑resolution imaging suitable for fine structural and material inspections thanks to its NA 0.90 and corrected optics.

Is the objective compatible with standard mounts?
Yes. The lens uses an M26 thread, which is a common mechanical interface; the Euromex AX.8100 can be fitted to compatible nosepieces or adapter rings without custom machining.

How does the plan‑apochromatic correction affect image results?
Plan‑apochromatic correction in this objective reduces chromatic and field curvature errors, so images are colour‑accurate and sharp across the entire field—beneficial for documentation and measurement workflows.

Can the objective be used with camera systems?
The infinity‑corrected design of the Euromex AX.8100 ensures compatibility with tube lenses and many digital camera systems; this maintains optical performance when a camera is introduced in the imaging path.

What does the BD designation indicate for this lens?
The BD marking is part of the product labelling; the Euromex 100×/0.90 BD objective includes the optical and mechanical specifications provided on the label for identification and selection.
