81Vergence (optics) — The vergence (typical symbol: L ) of a light bundle in optics is the reciprocal of the distance between the point of focus and a reference plane. It is measured in dioptres (1 D = 1 m 1). Vergence can also be understood as a measure of the… …
82Acousto-optics — is a branch of physics that studies the interactions between sound waves and light waves, especially the diffraction of laser light by ultrasound or sound in general.IntroductionOptics has had a very long and full history, from ancient Greece,… …

87Focus (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… …
88Radius of curvature (optics) — Radius of curvature has specific meaning and sign convention in optical design. A spherical lens or mirror surface has a center of curvature located in (x, y, z) either along or decentered from the system local optical axis. The vertex… …
