Quartz Coverslips

Quartz Microscope Slides and Cover Slips are a necessity for microscopy applications where UV transparency is needed. They can also be used for high end microscopy applications to reduce signal los due to absorption. Other application can involve UV radiation transparency. The quartz slides can also be used for high temperature applications up to 1250°C (2282°F). Above this temperature the material will start to soften. The Quartz material used to manufacturer our high quality quartz microscope slides and cover slips is the GE 124 type high purity fused quartz, a well documented quartz used over decades in microscopy applications.

Technical Iinformation about GE 124 Quartz

Transparency is provided for 0.19 to 4.2um with very low absorbance in the 0.26 to 2.6um range.

Quartz Coverslips are available in several sizes and thicknesses, although for most microscopy applications the 0.25mm thickness is adequate. Not sterile.
