प्रश्न

Obtain the equation for resolving the power of the microscope.

दीर्घउत्तर

उत्तर

  1. A microscope is used to see the details of the object under observation. The ability of a microscope depends not only in magnifying the object but also in resolving two points on the object separated by a small distance dmin. Smaller the value of dmin better will be the resolving power of the microscope.

    Resolving power of microscope
    `"r"_0 = (1.22 lambda "v")/"a"`
  2. then the magnification m is,
    m = `"r"_0/"d"_"min"`
    `"d"_"min" = "r"_0/"m" = (1.22 lambda"v")/"am" = (1.22 lambda "v")/("a"("v"//"u")) = (1.22 lambda"u")/"a"`
    [∴ m = v/u]
    `"d"_"min" = (1.22 lambda "f")/"a"` [∴ u ≈f]
    On the other side,
    2 tan β ≈ 2 sin β = `"a"/"f"` ∴ [a = f 2sin β]
    `"d"_"min" = (1.22 lambda)/(2 sin beta)`
  3. To further reduce the value of dmin the optical path of the light is increased by immersing the objective of the microscope into a bath containing oil of refractive index n.
    `"d"_"min" = (1.22 lambda)/(2"n" sin beta)`
  4. Such an objective is called oil-immersed objective. The term n sin β is called numerical aperture NA.
    `"d"_"min" = (1.22 lambda)/(2 ("NA"))`
