Abstract
A polarizing microscope is described, in which solid state samples can be cooled down to liquid‐helium temperatures and can be observed with a resolution of the order of 1 μ. By means of this microscope and thin magneto‐optical EuS/EuF2 films, the intermediate state in type‐I‐superconducting films of lead and tin could be resolved for the first time.Keywords
