• Lens (optics) — For other uses, see Lens. A lens. Lenses can be used to focus light. A lens is an optical device with perfect or approximate axial symmetry which tra …   Wikipedia

• Collimated light — In the lower picture, the light has been collimated. Collimated light is light whose rays are parallel, and therefore will spread slowly as it propagates. The word is related to collinear and implies light that does not disperse with distance… …   Wikipedia

• Collimated — Collimate Col li*mate, v. t. [imp. & p. p. {Collimated}; p. p. & vb. n. {Collimating}.] [See {Collimation}.] (Physics & Astron.)

• Electrostatic lens — An electrostatic lens is a device that assists in the transport of electrons emitted from a sample to an electron analyzer, analogous to the way an optical lens assists in the transport of light in an optical instrument. The recent development of …   Wikipedia

• Telecentric lens — A telecentric lens is a compound lens which has its entrance or exit pupil at infinity; in the prior case, this produces an orthographic view of the subject. This means that the chief rays (oblique rays which pass through the center of the… …   Wikipedia

• Focus (optics) — An image that is partially in focus, but mostly out of focus in varying degrees. In geometrical optics, a focus, also called an image point, is the point where light rays originating from a point on the object converge.[1] Although the focus is… …   Wikipedia

• Laser safety — A typical laser warning symbol. Laser safety is safe design, use and implementation of lasers to minimize the risk of laser accidents, especially those involving eye injuries. Since even relatively small amounts of laser light can lead to… …   Wikipedia

• Focal length — The focal length of an optical system is a measure of how strongly it converges (focuses) or diverges (diffuses) light. A system with a shorter focal length has greater optical power than one with a long focal length. Thin lens approximation For… …   Wikipedia
