NEWTON RINGS
This document describes Newton's rings experiment. When a plano-convex lens is placed on a glass plate, it forms a wedge-shaped air film between them whose thickness increases outward from the point of contact. Light incident on this film produces concentric alternating bright and dark rings when viewed through a microscope. The interference is caused by the path difference between light rays partially transmitted through the upper and lower surfaces of the air film. The diameters of the rings are directly proportional to the thickness of the air film. The central spot is dark due to destructive interference when the path difference is half the wavelength of light.
Polarisation
This document discusses polarization of light and different methods of producing polarized light. It begins by explaining that light waves are transverse waves and therefore can be polarized, proving that EM waves are transverse. It then discusses different types of polarization including linear, circular, and unpolarized polarization. Various methods for producing polarized light are described such as polarizers using wire grids, Polaroid sheets, reflection at Brewster's angle, and double refraction in crystals. Polarization concepts such as Malus' law are also covered. Practical applications like anti-glare car headlights and adjustable tint windows are briefly mentioned.

Basics and history of geometrical optics
Geometrical optics is concerned with how light propagates, reflects, and refracts using a ray model of light. There are four main postulates: (1) light travels in straight lines in a homogeneous medium, (2) the angle of reflection equals the angle of incidence, (3) Snell's law governs refraction, and (4) independent light beams do not interact. Geometrical optics is used to understand image formation by lenses and mirrors. Real images are formed when light rays actually intersect, while virtual images are formed by rays that appear to intersect if extended.
Newton rings
This document describes Newton's rings experiment to observe the interference of light. When a plano-convex lens is placed on a glass slide, a thin air film is formed of varying thickness. Circular interference fringes called Newton's rings are seen when monochromatic light is shone on the setup. The rings appear as alternating bright and dark circles whose diameters are used to determine the wavelength of light through mathematical formulas derived from light interference principles.
Aberrations of Lenses
Aberrations in optical systems like the eye arise due to imperfect refraction of light rays. There are two main types: chromatic aberration due to dispersion of different wavelengths, and monochromatic aberrations for a single wavelength. Specific monochromatic aberrations include defocus, astigmatism, spherical aberration, coma, distortion and higher order aberrations. These aberrations can be reduced through lens design and stops, or in the eye through features like the cornea shape and iris. New wavefront technology allows precise measurement of higher order aberrations.
Basic optics
Optics is the study of light, including its interactions with matter. There are three main subfields: geometrical optics studies light as rays, physical optics studies light as waves, and quantum optics studies light as particles. Mirrors form images through the reflection of light rays according to specific rules. Plane mirrors form virtual upright images that are laterally inverted. Spherical mirrors can be concave or convex and form images using rules for tracing the path of light rays. Constructing ray diagrams involves using rays that pass through the center of curvature, focal point, or pole to locate the image point.
Diffraction of light
1. Diffraction refers to the bending of light around obstacles or through openings, and results in interference patterns.
2. There are two main types of diffraction: Fresnel diffraction occurs when light passes near an obstacle, while Fraunhofer diffraction occurs when light passes through or around objects and the observation is made far from the obstacle.
3. Diffraction gratings consist of many parallel slits and cause light to diffract into several beams. The angles and intensities of these beams can be determined through analysis of interference from the multiple slits.

interference & diffraction
The document provides an overview of interference and diffraction concepts. It discusses interference due to thin films of uniform and non-uniform thickness. For thin films of uniform thickness, the conditions for constructive and destructive interference are derived based on the total path difference being equal to integral or half-integral multiples of wavelength. For wedge-shaped thin films of non-uniform thickness, the optical path difference expression is derived and the conditions for bright and dark fringes are obtained. Key features of interference patterns from wedge-shaped films like equidistant, straight and parallel fringes are also summarized.
Ophthalmic prism
Prisms are used in ophthalmology to deviate light and measure eye alignment and vision. They have several key properties: they deviate light without changing its vergence, displacing the image towards the base. Prism power is measured in prism diopters and can be used to calculate the amount of deviation induced by lenses. There are several types of prisms including dispersive, polarizing, and reflecting prisms that are used in instruments and to diagnose and treat various eye conditions like deviations, visual field defects, and degenerative diseases.

All of these cardinal points lie on the optical axis and allow the system's behavior to be analyzed using paraxial approximations.
NEWTON RINGS Mohit sharma ppt
This document discusses Newton's rings, an optical phenomenon where alternating bright and dark concentric rings are formed due to interference of light. Newton's rings are created by the reflection of light between two surfaces - a spherical surface and an adjacent flat surface. The document explains how the interference fringes form and provides the formula to calculate the radius of the bright rings based on variables like ring number, radius of curvature and wavelength of light. It also describes how the light and dark rings are caused by constructive and destructive interference respectively and how the spacing between outer rings is smaller than inner rings.
Interfernce
This document discusses the phenomenon of interference, which occurs when two coherent waves superimpose to form a resultant wave of greater or lower amplitude. It defines interference and describes conditions like coherent sources, polarization, amplitudes, and path differences that must be met. Young's double slit experiment is explained as demonstrating constructive and destructive interference based on differing path lengths. Applications of interference principles are outlined, including uses in antireflection coatings, holography, laser interferometry, and optical coherence tomography.
Polarization of Light
POLARIZATION
Polarization is a property of waves that can oscillate with more than one orientation.
Electromagnetic waves such as light exhibit polarization, as do some other types of wave, such as gravitational waves.
Sound waves in a gas or liquid do not exhibit polarization, since the oscillation is always in the direction the wave travels.
Diffraction
When waves encounter obstacles like slits, they diffract or bend around the edges. Diffraction can be explained by Huygens' principle, which says each point on a wavefront acts as a new source. For a single slit, the new wavefront shape is determined by combining spherical wavelets from points across the slit. There are two types of diffraction: Fresnel, where distances are finite, and Fraunhofer, where incident waves are plane waves. X-ray diffraction uses wavelengths comparable to atomic sizes to determine crystal and molecular structures.
Laser interferometry
The document discusses laser interferometry, which uses lasers to make highly accurate length measurements. It describes how a laser produces coherent, monochromatic light and can be used as the light source in interferometry. Interferometry works by superimposing laser light waves to extract information about the waves. Specifically, it uses the frequency difference between two laser beams to precisely measure displacements down to 0.1mm over distances of 100m. Key components of a laser interferometer system include a dual frequency laser source, optical elements like beam splitters, and a measurement receiver and display.
Birefringence
Birefringence is the phenomenon of double refraction that occurs when light passes through anisotropic crystals. Anisotropic crystals have non-equivalent crystallographic axes and therefore interact with light differently depending on the crystal's orientation. This causes light to refract into two rays with perpendicular vibration directions traveling at different velocities, known as ordinary and extraordinary rays. Crystals are classified as either isotropic, where all axes interact with light the same, or anisotropic. Common anisotropic crystals that exhibit birefringence include quartz, calcite, and tourmaline.

Lens defects or lens fault ppt
Lens defects can be grouped into three categories: manufacturing defects, surface defects, and errors in power. Manufacturing defects like color, strain, bubbles, or feathers occur during the production process. Surface defects such as pits, waves, or orange peel happen during polishing or handling. Errors in power arise when blocking pressure or base curves are inconsistent during lens grinding. Proper manufacturing and polishing techniques are needed to minimize defects that can impact image quality or visual comfort.

Sign convention
This document discusses sign conventions and vergence in optics. It defines sign conventions as choices of plus or minus signs used consistently in physics equations. The Cartesian sign convention for optics is described. Vergence is defined as the curvature of optical wavefronts and can be positive (convergence) or negative (divergence). Types of lens power specification are also outlined, including approximate, back vertex, front vertex, equivalent, and effective power. The document concludes that back vertex power is most commonly used in optics.
Refraction of light
This document discusses the refraction of light. It defines refraction as the change in direction of light when passing from one medium to another. It states that light bends away from the normal when traveling to a less dense medium, and toward the normal when traveling to a denser medium. Snell's law is introduced, which states that the ratio of sines of the angle of incidence and refraction is a constant. Refractive index is defined as the ratio of speed of light in a vacuum to that in a medium. Lens equations and image formation by convex and concave lenses are briefly covered.
Interferometer
Laser interferometers use the precise wavelength of lasers to perform high-precision measurements of distance, angles, and other quantities. There are two main types: homodyne laser interferometers, which are based on Michelson interferometry, and heterodyne laser interferometers, which detect Doppler shifts. Key components include a laser source, beam splitters, retroreflectors, and a measurement receiver. Applications include measuring displacement, angles, flatness, straightness, and vibrations in fields like engineering and manufacturing.
Total Internal Reflection and Critical Angle
This document discusses total internal reflection and the critical angle. It defines refractive index as the ratio of light speed in a vacuum to light speed in a medium. When light passes from one medium to another of different density, refraction occurs. As the angle of incidence increases, so does the angle of refraction, until reaching the critical angle. At the critical angle, the light ray follows the surface instead of entering the second medium. Above the critical angle, total internal reflection occurs and the light is reflected back into the first medium. Total internal reflection and critical angles depend on the refractive indices of the materials, and have applications in fiber optics, prisms, periscopes, and more.
Reflection
The document discusses reflection of light, including specular and diffuse reflection. It defines the law of reflection, which states that the angle of incidence equals the angle of reflection, and that the incident ray, reflected ray, and normal ray all lie in the same plane. Specular reflection occurs off smooth surfaces, reflecting light in one direction, while diffuse reflection occurs off rough surfaces, scattering light in many directions. The document uses examples and diagrams to illustrate these concepts.
Fresnel & diffraction
This document describes the setup and components used to determine the wavelength of sodium light using a Fresnel biprism and the diameter of a wire using diffraction phenomena.

Precautions are noted to first remove any lateral shift before performing the experiment.
Newton's ring experiment
This document summarizes an experiment on interference fringes using a sodium lamp as a monochromatic light source. Rays from the source were reflected through a plano convex lens and formed circular interference patterns known as Newton's rings on the glass surface. The width of the fringes could be measured using a traveling microscope and used to calculate the wavelength of light from the sodium lamp through a formula accounting for the air gap between the lens and glass surface. The circular fringes resulted from the plano-convex lens shaping the light waves into concentric rings.

This allows very small changes in distance or wavelength to be measured precisely.

Newton's rings are an interference pattern caused when monochromatic light reflects off a spherical surface, like a lens, and an adjacent flat surface, like a glass sheet. This forms a thin air film between the surfaces that varies in thickness. At points of constructive interference, bright rings appear; at points of destructive interference, dark rings appear. The spacing between the rings gets smaller further from the center. The formula for the radius of the nth bright ring is derived from considering the optical path difference between light reflecting off the two surfaces.

Wave optics
Huygen's principle describes how each point on a wavefront acts as a secondary source of waves, and that the new wavefront is the envelope of these secondary waves. It provides a method for determining the propagation and behavior of light waves. The principle is based on assuming each point on the initial wavefront emits spherical wavelets, and the new wavefront is the envelope of these secondary waves. It can be used to understand phenomena like interference and diffraction of light.

Fibre optics.pptx
This document describes an experiment to measure the numerical aperture of an optical fiber. The apparatus includes a diode laser source, microscope objective, fiber holders, and an optical fiber. The numerical aperture is calculated using a formula involving the radius of the circular spot formed on a screen and the distance between the fiber holder and screen. Light is coupled from the laser into the fiber and the resulting spot is measured on the screen. The distance and spot radius are recorded in a table and used to calculate the numerical aperture. The goal is to determine the light gathering capacity and acceptance angle of the optical fiber.
X ray beam rest
X-ray beam restrictors regulate the size and shape of the x-ray beam. There are three main types: aperture diaphragms, cones/cylinders, and collimators. Aperture diaphragms are the simplest type, using a lead diaphragm with a hole to shape the beam but producing a large penumbra. Cones and cylinders modify the aperture diaphragm design to restrict the beam size. Collimators provide adjustable rectangular fields using shutters and illuminated light beams to define the x-ray field size. Beam restrictors aim to decrease off-focus radiation, reduce the irradiated patient volume, and provide patient protection by limiting the x-ray field size

experiment to determine the numerical aperture of an optical fibre..
This document describes an experiment to determine the numerical aperture of an optical fiber. Numerical aperture refers to the maximum angle at which light entering the fiber is internally reflected along its length. The experiment involves connecting an optical fiber to a trainer board and screen. The distance from the fiber end to the screen is varied to make the light spot coincide with circles of different diameters. This allows calculating the numerical aperture using a formula involving the spot diameter and distance. The numerical aperture obtained was 0.4.
SOURCE poster final
This document summarizes a student project that developed an apparatus to measure the coherence length of lasers using a modified Michelson interferometer. The apparatus was used to compare the coherence lengths of a diode laser and He-Ne laser. Fringes produced by scanning the adjustable mirror demonstrated that visibility decreased more for the diode laser, indicating its shorter coherence length compared to the He-Ne laser. The project provides results of the interference patterns produced and confirms the diode laser has a wider bandwidth based on the models and data collected.

How to Make a Field Mandatory in Odoo 17
In Odoo, making a field required can be done through both Python code and XML views. When you set the required attribute to True in Python code, it makes the field required across all views where it's used. Conversely, when you set the required attribute in XML views, it makes the field required only in the context of that particular view.
