In the Book of Optics, al-Haytham hypothesized the existence of primary and secondary light, with primary light being the stronger or more intense of the two.The book describes how the essential form of light comes from self-luminous bodies and that accidental light comes from objects that obtain and emit light from those self-luminous bodies.
Optics is the branch of physics that studies the behaviour and properties of light, including its interactions with matter and the construction of instruments that use or detect it. [1]
Although the word optical, deriving from Ancient Greek ὀπτῐκός (optikós, "of or for sight"), generally refers to something visible or visual, [7] the term optical spectrum is used to describe the sum of the visible, the ultraviolet and the infrared spectra (at least in this context).
The optical properties of a material define how it interacts with light.The optical properties of matter are studied in optical physics (a subfield of optics) and applied in materials science.
