Abbe refractometer maintenance
The zero point of the scale of the Abbe refractometer dial sometimes moves and needs to be corrected. The calibration method is generally to use a standard liquid with a known refractive index, usually pure water.

Explanation of Gem Refractometer Phenomena
When the gemstone to be tested rotates 360° on the refractometer, there is always only one shadow boundary (fixed), indicating that the gemstone is an isotropic gemstone (single refraction gemstone).

Gem refractometer (gem refractometer) is an instrument used to measure the refractive index of gemstones. It uses a hemisphere of a high refractive index homogeneous material (such as lead glass or synthetic cubic zirconia) as a prism;

How to Troubleshoot Abbe Refractometers
Possible reasons: ①The eyepiece and related optical parts have dust and oil stains; ②The sample is not full of the prism surface; ③The gap between the upper and lower prisms is too large; ④The position of the achromatic prism is not diagonal; ⑤The surface of the refracting prism is rough or corroded.

What is an Abbe refractometer?
The Abbe refractometer is an instrument capable of measuring the refractive index nD and average dispersion nF-nC of transparent, translucent liquids or solids (among them, transparent liquids are mainly used).
