  2. Fresnel lens - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fresnel_lens

    A Fresnel lens (/ ˈ f r eɪ n ɛ l,-n əl / FRAY-nel, -⁠nəl; / ˈ f r ɛ n ɛ l,-əl / FREN-el, -⁠əl; or / f r eɪ ˈ n ɛ l / fray-NEL [1]) is a type of composite compact lens which reduces the amount of material required compared to a conventional lens by dividing the lens into a set of concentric annular sections.

  3. Fresnel number - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fresnel_number

    The Fresnel number is a useful concept in physical optics. The Fresnel number establishes a coarse criterion to define the near and far field approximations. Essentially, if Fresnel number is small – less than roughly 1 – the beam is said to be in the far field. If Fresnel number is larger than 1, the beam is said to be near field. However ...

  4. Fresnel equations - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fresnel_equations

    Variables used in the Fresnel equations. In the diagram on the right, an incident plane wave in the direction of the ray IO strikes the interface between two media of refractive indices n 1 and n 2 at point O. Part of the wave is reflected in the direction OR, and part refracted in the direction OT.

  5. Telecentric lens - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Telecentric_lens

    A telecentric lens is a special optical lens (often an objective lens or a camera lens) that has its entrance or exit pupil, or both, at infinity. The size of images produced by a telecentric lens is insensitive to either the distance between an object being imaged and the lens, or the distance between the image plane and the lens, or both, and ...

  6. Lens (geometry) - Wikipedia

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

    A lens with a different shape forms the answer to Mrs. Miniver's problem, on finding a lens with half the area of the union of the two circles. Lenses are used to define beta skeletons, geometric graphs defined on a set of points by connecting pairs of points by an edge whenever a lens determined by the two points is empty.

  7. Fresnel zone - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fresnel_zone

    Fresnel zone: D is the distance between the transmitter and the receiver; r is the radius of the first Fresnel zone (n=1) at point P. P is d1 away from the transmitter, and d2 away from the receiver. The concept of Fresnel zone clearance may be used to analyze interference by obstacles near the path of a radio beam.

  8. Fresnel diffraction - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fresnel_diffraction

    Fresnel diffraction of circular aperture, plotted with Lommel functions. This is the Fresnel diffraction integral; it means that, if the Fresnel approximation is valid, the propagating field is a spherical wave, originating at the aperture and moving along z. The integral modulates the amplitude and phase of the spherical wave.

  9. Catadioptric system - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Catadioptric_system

    This means the lens's F-number value is fixed to the overall designed focal ratio of the optical system (the diameter of the primary mirror divided into the focal length). The inability to stop down the lens results in the catadioptric lens having a short depth of field.
