Review of the Lomo Monochromator on a Zeiss Photomicroscope III

[cmtalb01]

I decided to post my experience with the Lomo Monochromator for the PoLam, when attached to a Zeiss Photomicroscope III. The summary is below and the full experience is attached. Curious, has any one else worked with this monochromator, would enjoy hearing your experience!

Summary: The Lomo Polam Monochromator can be found on the New Old Stock market for reasonable prices and offers an excellent option to provide monochromatic light (15nm bandwidth) to the microscope. Dichroic filters and the ability to change the angle of incidence provides the ability to select wavelengths for most of the wavelength range between 385nm to 689nm. This makes the monochromator ideal for refractive index and dispersion studies as well as any other application where a variable monochromatic light source is needed.

Just a note of thanks. I'm thoroughly enjoying seeing the results of your experiments with both LED lamps and the monochromator.
