  • FLUID IMMERSION CONTROL FOR INVERTED MICROSCOPY
    Publication number: 20230213749
    Abstract: A fluid immersion control system may use a common electrode along with a plurality of sensor electrodes at a distal portion of an immersion microscope objective to monitor electrical resistance of a fluid as an indication of presence of a fluid layer used for immersion microscopy. The fluid immersion control system may activate replenishment of the fluid when the resistance indicates that a diameter of the microscope objective is not immersed in the fluid.
    Type: Application

  • Fluid immersion control for inverted microscopy
    Patent number: 11644658
    Abstract: A fluid immersion control system may use a common electrode along with a plurality of sensor electrodes at a planar surface associated with a distal end of an immersion microscope objective to monitor electrical resistance of a fluid as an indication of presence of a fluid layer having a meniscus greater than a diameter of an optical axis used for immersion microscopy. The fluid immersion control system may activate replenishment of the fluid when the resistance indicates that the diameter is not immersed in the fluid.
    Type: Grant
