  2. Radius of curvature (optics) - Wikipedia

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

    Radius of curvature sign convention for optical design. Radius of curvature (ROC) has specific meaning and sign convention in optical design. A spherical lens or mirror surface has a center of curvature located either along or decentered from the system local optical axis. The vertex of the lens surface is located on the local optical axis.

  3. Sign convention - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sign_convention

    The sign of the weight of a tensor density, such as the weight of the determinant of the covariant metric tensor. The active and passive sign convention of current, voltage and power in electrical engineering. A sign convention used for curved mirrors assigns a positive focal length to concave mirrors and a negative focal length to convex mirrors.

  4. Focal length - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Focal_length

    For a spherically-curved mirror in air, the magnitude of the focal length is equal to the radius of curvature of the mirror divided by two. The focal length is positive for a concave mirror, and negative for a convex mirror. In the sign convention used in optical design, a concave mirror has negative radius of curvature, so

  5. Vergence (optics) - Wikipedia

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

    For concave lenses, the focal point is on the back side of the lens, or the output side of the focal plane, and is negative in power. A lens with no optical power is called an optical window, having flat, parallel faces. The optical power directly relates to how large positive images will be magnified, and how small negative images will be ...

  6. Curved mirror - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Curved_mirror

    A concave mirror, or converging mirror, has a reflecting surface that is recessed inward (away from the incident light). Concave mirrors reflect light inward to one focal point. They are used to focus light. Unlike convex mirrors, concave mirrors show different image types depending on the distance between the object and the mirror.

  7. Spherical aberration - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Spherical_aberration

    + = + (+), where the signs of the radii follow the Cartesian sign convention. A point source as imaged by a system with negative (top row), zero (middle row), and positive spherical aberration (bottom row). The middle column shows the focused image, columns to the left show defocusing toward the inside, and columns to the right show defocusing ...

  8. Geometrical optics - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Geometrical_optics

    Similarly to curved mirrors, thin lenses follow a simple equation that determines the location of the images given a particular focal length and object distance (): + = where is the distance associated with the image and is considered by convention to be negative if on the same side of the lens as the object and positive if on the opposite side ...
