Equipped on the Condenser of the microscope, the iris diaphragm is a shutter controlled by a lever that is used to regulate the amount of light entering the lens system.

What is the function for a iris diaphragm on a microscope?

The function of an iris diaphragm on a microscope is to adjust the size of the aperture, controlling the amount of light entering the lens system. By changing the diameter of the iris diaphragm, you can adjust the depth of field and improve image contrast and clarity.


How did the iris diaphragm get its name?

The iris diaphragm is named after the iris, the colored part of the eye, because of its similar appearance and function. Just like the iris controls the amount of light entering the eye, the iris diaphragm in a camera lens controls the amount of light entering the camera.

What is the iris diaphragm function on a compound light microscope?

the iris diaphragm controls the amount of light that passes through the stage and, consequently, through the specimen. Reducing the iris diaphragm aperture increases contrast for an image focused under high power by reducing the amount of light that both fills the objective lens and deracts around specimen edges. Opening the iris diaphragm under high magnification increases "flare", the appearance of light "washing out" an object. By decreasing the flow of light through the specimen, the iris diaphragm limits light defraction and saturation.
