... Let a ray of monochromatic light parallel to the principal axis be incident on a thin lens at a height h above the axis and let f be the focal length of the lens. As the ray is parallel to the principal axis, after refraction it will pass through the second focus (Fig. 3.6). The deviation suffered b ...

... Because light rays do not actually pass through this image, it is known as a virtual image. In the case of a plane mirror, the image distance si from the mirror is the same as the object distance so from the mirror. The most common curved mirror is a spherical mirror. A concave or converging mirror ...

... In order to have object and image in focus at the same time, they must be placed at an equal distance to the eye. In this case object distance and image distance are the same and the magnification factor is 1. It may be proved quite accurately, whether magnification 1 has in fact been obtained, if o ...

Lens (optics)



A lens is a transmissive optical device that affects the focus of a light beam through refraction. A simple lens consists of a single piece of material, while a compound lens consists of several simple lenses (elements), usually along a common axis. Lenses are made from transparent materials such as glass, ground and polished to a desired shape. A lens can focus light to form an image, unlike a prism, which refracts light without focusing. Devices that similarly refract radiation other than visible light are also called lenses, such as microwave lenses or acoustic lenses.
