  2. Curved mirror - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Curved_mirror

    A convex mirror diagram showing the focus, focal length, centre of curvature, principal axis, etc. A convex mirror or diverging mirror is a curved mirror in which the reflective surface bulges towards the light source. [1] Convex mirrors reflect light outwards, therefore they are not used to focus light.

  3. Vergence (optics) - Wikipedia

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

    Light does not actually consist of imaginary rays and light sources are not single-point sources, thus vergence is typically limited to simple ray modeling of optical systems. In a real system, the vergence is a product of the diameter of a light source, its distance from the optics, and the curvature of the optical surfaces.

  4. Real image - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Real_image

    Examples of real images include the image produced on a detector in the rear of a camera, and the image produced on an eyeball retina (the camera and eye focus light through an internal convex lens). In ray diagrams (such as the images on the right), real rays of light are always represented by full, solid lines; perceived or extrapolated rays ...

  6. File:Convex mirror.svg - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:Convex_mirror.svg

    A diagram representing a convex mirror, which shows its focus, focal length, center of curvature, and the principal axis. It enables the viewer to visualize how the mirror looks and functions. It shows where the mirror reflects the light falling on it, and from where the light could come to be reflected.

  7. Virtual image - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Virtual_image

    The magnification of the virtual image formed by the plane mirror is 1. Top: The formation of a virtual image using a diverging lens. Bottom: The formation of a virtual image using a convex mirror. In both diagrams, f is the focal point, O is the object, and I is the virtual image, shown in grey. Solid blue lines indicate (real) light rays and ...

  8. Geometrical optics - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Geometrical_optics

    Geometrical optics, or ray optics, is a model of optics that describes light propagation in terms of rays.The ray in geometrical optics is an abstraction useful for approximating the paths along which light propagates under certain circumstances.

  9. Optical cavity - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Optical_cavity

    Types of two-mirror optical cavities, with mirrors of various curvatures, showing the radiation pattern inside each cavity. Light confined in a resonator will reflect multiple times from the mirrors, and due to the effects of interference, only certain patterns and frequencies of radiation will be sustained by the resonator, with the others being suppressed by destructive interference.
