CALCITE DICHROSCOPE WITH STAGE

Dichroscope is a metal tube which is open on one end and has a lens at the other.

Description

APPLICATIONS

Dichroscope has an optical calcite mounted inside the tube and produces a double image of the square opening. Enough bright light is directed on a gemstone and viewed through the dichroscope.

Dichroscope separates the different colours of light into its constituent colours. Light entering the dichroscope is broken into two polarized rays. Two images of different colours indicate that the vibrations are of different wavelengths and at right angels to each other. If dichroism is not detected in the first test, the gemstone has to turned and output colours must be viewed in other directions too.

FEATURES

Dichroscope helps determine the pleochroic property of the gemstone that helps to separate different types of gemstones.
It also helps to determine whether the gemstone exhibits weak or strong pleochroism.
