uniform dispersion
1Dispersion (optics) — This article is about dispersion of waves in optics. For other forms of dispersion, see Dispersion (disambiguation). In a prism, material dispersion (a wavelength dependent refractive index) causes different colors to refract at different angles …
2dispersion — /di sperr zheuhn, sheuhn/, n. 1. Also, dispersal. an act, state, or instance of dispersing or of being dispersed. 2. Optics. a. the variation of the index of refraction of a transparent substance, as glass, with the wavelength of light, with the… …
3Dispersion relation — The refraction of a light in a prism is due to dispersion. In physics and electrical engineering, dispersion most often refers to frequency dependent effects in wave propagation. Note, however, that there are several other uses of the word… …
4Taylor dispersion — is an effect in fluid mechanics in which a shear flow can increase the effective diffusivity of a species. Essentially, the shear acts to smear out the concentration distribution in the direction of the flow, enhancing the rate at which it… …
5Compound prism — A compound prism is a set of multiple triangular prism elements placed in contact, and often cemented together to form a solid assembly.[1] The use of multiple elements gives several advantages to an optical designer:[2] One can achieve spectral… …
