Fused Quartz Microscope Slides & Cover Slips

Clear Fused Quartz Microscope Slides are used to hold objects for examination under a microscope. Sometimes used with a Clear Fused Quartz Cover Slip. Typically, the object is secured on the slide, and then both are inserted together in the microscope for viewing. Clear Fused Quartz Microscope Slides, often referred to as Quartz Microscope Slides, are commonly used when ultraviolet transparency is important, as in fluorescence microscopy or when using Fused Silica Windows for Microscopy to ensure optical clarity.
Quartz Microscope Slides are essential when UV transmission, temperature, and purity are critical. They offer similar performance advantages as Fused Silica Windows for Microscopy, especially in high-precision laboratory settings. TGP’s Microscope Slides, as with all our Fused Quartz windows, plates, and discs, provide solutions to our customers from the scientific communities. These are also ideal for applications requiring High-temperature quartz joints, or when integrated with Quartz crimp vials for lab use for complete sample containment. In addition, our Quartz Microscope Slide solutions are aligned with broader demands for Fused quartz for industrial applications, where both durability and transparency are essential.
