Mini transfocator for microscopy developed

A mini transfocator that weighs less than 2 kilograms had been developed and can be used to change the focus of the x-rays gradually…

Researchers have developed a mini transfocator for microscopy devices.

Physicists from Immanuel Kant Baltic Federal University developed the lens that can be used in microscopic research that requires compact and mobile optical systems. These types of lenses are currently used to produce high-resolution x-ray images, and to focus x-rays to a submicron scale. To change the focus, scientists often change lenses, similar to when professional photographers change lenses. Researchers use variable focus lenses or transfocators, which are systems with adjustable lenses that can be removed or added to an x-ray beam to regulate the focus distance.

Due to the fact that the configuration of a transfocator is easily changeable, it is often used for initial focusing in combination with other focusing elements and as an independent focusing device in a beam.
