Optics

Ray tracing with lenses, mirrors, refraction, polarization, and wave optics including interference and diffraction.

• Converging lens — real image
• Focal point — parallel rays
• Magnifier (object inside f)
• Diverging lens — virtual image
• Concave mirror — real image
• Convex mirror — virtual image
• Plane mirror
• Apparent depth (flat interface)
• Total internal reflection
• Two-lens relay
• Compound microscope (angular)
• Two-lens enlarger
• White-light prism
• Minimum deviation
• Flint-glass prism (more dispersion)
• Thin (small-apex) prism
• Water prism (rainbow)
• Lensmaker lens (from radii)
• Normal eye
• Myopia (near-sighted)
• Myopia corrected
• Hyperopia (far-sighted)
• Hyperopia corrected
• Young's double slit
• Single-slit diffraction
• Diffraction grating
• Thin-film interference
• Simple magnifier (angular)
• Astronomical telescope
• Compound microscope (angular)
• Crossed polarizers
• Three-polarizer paradox
• Brewster's angle
