    The ICSE Examination is a school examination and the standard of the examination pre-supposes a school course of ten years duration (Classes I-X). The Indian Certificate of Secondary Education Examination will ensure a general education and all candidates are required to enter for six or more subjects and Socially Useful Productive Work (SUPW).

  4. Lens - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lens

    A burning apparatus consisting of two biconvex lens. A lens is a transmissive optical device that focuses or disperses a light beam by means of refraction.A simple lens consists of a single piece of transparent material, while a compound lens consists of several simple lenses (elements), usually arranged along a common axis.

    This is any lens with a focal length longer than the diagonal measure of the film or sensor. [121] The most common type of long focus lens is the telephoto lens, a design that uses a special telephoto group to be physically shorter than its focal length. [122] Modern zoom lenses may have some or all of these attributes.

  6. Gradient-index optics - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gradient-index_optics

    A gradient-index lens with a parabolic variation of refractive index (n) with radial distance (x).The lens focuses light in the same way as a conventional lens. Gradient-index (GRIN) optics is the branch of optics covering optical effects produced by a gradient of the refractive index of a material.

  7. Optical fiber - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Optical_fiber

    Fluoride glass is a class of non-oxide optical quality glasses composed of fluorides of various metals. Because of the low viscosity of these glasses, it is very difficult to completely avoid crystallization while processing it through the glass transition (or drawing the fiber from the melt).

  8. Objective (optics) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Objective_(optics)

    These lenses are often color coded for easier use. The least powerful lens is called the scanning objective lens, and is typically a 4× objective. The second lens is referred to as the small objective lens and is typically a 10× lens. The most powerful lens out of the three is referred to as the large objective lens and is typically 40–100×.

  9. Lens (vertebrate anatomy) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lens_(vertebrate_anatomy)

    The lens is located towards the front part of the vertebrate eye, called the anterior segment, which includes the cornea and iris positioned in front of the lens. The lens is held in place by the suspensory ligaments (Zonule of Zinn), [1] attaching the lens at its equator to the rest of the eye [2] [3] through the ciliary body.
