2. Homework Problem 5 The light source is a 3-mm square tungsten filament. The design of the illumination system requires that (1) the filament be 300 mm away from the condenser diaphragm, (2) the image of the filament must be in focus at the condenser diaphragm and (3) the filament must be 15-mm square to fill the condenser aperture with light. Assuming the lamp collector lens is an ideal thin lens, determine the focal length, and the position of the collector lens between the lamp filament and the condenser diaphragm. Ans: Eqn 1: M = i/o = 15/3 = 5; i = 5o Eqn 2: i+ o = 300; 5o +o = 300; o = 300/6 = 50; i = 250 Eqn 3: 1/i +1/o = 1/f; 1/250 +1/50 = 1/f; f = 41.67 mm

3. Homework Problem 6 A field diaphragm or iris is placed in front of the collector lens as shown for the Koehler illumination system. The field iris is used to control the illuminated area of the specimen. The condenser lens is translated back and forth along the central axis until an image of the field diaphragm is in sharp focus on the specimen. When the opening of the field diaphragm is 20 mm, the image on the specimen must be 2 mm in diameter. In addition, the field diaphragm is placed 160 mm away from the condenser lens. What is the focal length of the condenser needed to meet these requirements? Answer: Eqn. 1): 1/o +1/i = 1/f, or 1/160 +1/i = 1/f and Eqn. 2): M = i/o =.1, so i =.1 *160 = 16 mm Solving Eqn 1 1/160 +1/16 = 1/f; f = 14.5 mm
