  2. Prism (optics) - Wikipedia

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

    Prism spectacles with a single prism perform a relative displacement of the two eyes, thereby correcting eso-, exo, hyper- or hypotropia. In contrast, spectacles with prisms of equal power for both eyes, called yoked prisms (also: conjugate prisms , ambient lenses or performance glasses ) shift the visual field of both eyes to the same extent.

  3. Minimum deviation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Minimum_deviation

    In a prism, the angle of deviation (δ) decreases with increase in the angle of incidence (i) up to a particular angle.This angle of incidence where the angle of deviation in a prism is minimum is called the minimum deviation position of the prism and that very deviation angle is known as the minimum angle of deviation (denoted by δ min, D λ, or D m).

  4. Dispersive prism - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dispersive_prism

    Photograph of a triangular prism, dispersing light Lamps as seen through a prism. In optics, a dispersive prism is an optical prism that is used to disperse light, that is, to separate light into its spectral components (the colors of the rainbow). Different wavelengths (colors) of light will be deflected by the prism at different angles. [1]

    Mark Kistler's Imagination Station is a public television series where artist Mark Kistler taught children and adults to draw using techniques such as perspective and shading. The program was originally presented by TV station KIXE in the Redding and Chico areas of the U.S. state of California .

    A triplet prism, showing the apex angles (, , and ) of the three elements, and the angles of incidence and refraction ′ at each interface. The deviation angle of the ray transmitted by the prism is shown as δ {\displaystyle \delta } .

  8. Refractive index - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Refractive_index

    The second prism should have an index of refraction higher than that of the liquid, so that light only enters the prism at angles smaller than the critical angle for total reflection. This angle can then be measured either by looking through a telescope, [clarification needed] or with a digital photodetector placed in the focal plane of a lens.

    A double-Amici prism, showing the apex angles (and ) of the three elements, and the angles of incidence and refraction ′ at each interface. The deviation angle of the ray transmitted by the prism is shown as δ {\displaystyle \delta }
