A total refractive prism is also known as a total internal reflection prism. It is an optical prism that is designed for reflecting 100% of the incident light. This happens since this prism uses the principle of total internal reflection. These prisms are oriented and shaped in a specific way so that the light that enters at a specific angle is completely reflected inside the prism. A right-angle prism, porro prism, dove prism and roof prism are some of the examples of total reflective prism.
Total deviation in a prism is the total angle by which the light ray gets bent as it passes through the prism. It is an angle between incident ray and emergent ray of the prism. When a light enters the prism, it will bend towards the normal. After that, it will travel through the prism and bend away from the normal as it exits. Total deviation is the sum of these two from which the apex angle is subtracted.
The formula for total deviation for a prism is as follows:
- : angle of incidence at first surface
- : angle of emergence at second surface
- A: apex angle of the prism
There are different types of glasses that are used in optical instruments, including the following:
Crown glass (K): This glass is used in eyeglasses, microscopes and cameras. It is used in prisms and windows in optical systems. Crown glass has a low refractive index, low dispersion and excellent transparency in visible spectrum.
Flint Glass (F): This glass, when combined with crown glass, can correct chromatic aberration in lenses. They are also used in prisms for spectroscopy.
Extra-low dispersion glass: These glasses are used in premium optics that are also used for making high-quality camera lenses, telescopes and binoculars.
Optical instruments can have some of the following defects that may impact their performance, which have arisen due to design limitations, manufacturing and physical properties of light:
- Chromatic Aberration: This defect occurs because of the different wavelengths of light that refract at slightly different angles when they pass through the lens. It causes them to focus on different points.
- Spherical Aberration: This happens because light rays pass through the edges of spherical lens or reflect off spherical mirror focus at different point than rays that pass through the center.
- Astigmatism: This type of defect occurs due to the uneven cu
Yes, optical instruments are used in modern medicine for many purposes including surgery, monitoring, research and diagnosis. Let us take a look at each one by one:
- Many optical instruments are used for visualizing internal structures for diagnosis of a disease and its monitoring. These include Ophthalmoscope, Endoscope, Colposcope and Dermatoscope.
- Optical instruments are also used for precision and minimally invasive surgeries, including Laparoscope, Arthroscope and Surgical Microscopes.
- Lasers are used for cutting, therapy and coagulation since they have precision and minimal invasiveness. CO? Laser, Excimer Laser and Fiber Optic
