Case Study: UV Microscope Objectives for Genetic Analysis

Project Background:  UV Microscope Objectives for Genetic Analysis

A global leader in agricultural genetics and reproduction services approached us to address problems they were facing related to the cost and durability of microscope objective lenses. These lenses play a pivotal role in analyzing genetic data, directly impacting the company’s efficiency and operational costs. By partnering with us, they hoped to enhance the performance and longevity of their UV microscope objectives.

Challenges in Designing and Manufacturing UV Microscope Objectives

  1. Optical Design Complexity Designing UV microscope objectives involves navigating the unique properties of UV light, such as shorter wavelengths, higher photon energy, and lower transmittance. Advanced optical design techniques needed to be employed to deliver optimal imaging across the entire field of view. One aspect of this was the development of apochromatic equation systems to correct chromatic and spherical aberrations.
