... the Internet and its applications such as teleconferencing. Optic fibre does not only play a pivotal role in the telecommunication industry but it is also an important component in the field of medicine, where it is used in laparoscopic surgery and also in laser surgery. Other uses such as the trans ...

... The polarization of an electromagnetic wave is defined as the direction in which the electric field propagates. A fiber drawn from a cylindrical preform has a circular cross section, so it is degenerated in polarization; there is no preferred axis for aligning polarization. But refractive index gene ...

Optical aberration



An optical aberration is a departure of the performance of an optical system from the predictions of paraxial optics. In an imaging system, it occurs when light from one point of an object does not converge into (or does not diverge from) a single point after transmission through the system. Aberrations occur because the simple paraxial theory is not a completely accurate model of the effect of an optical system on light, rather than due to flaws in the optical elements.Aberration leads to blurring of the image produced by an image-forming optical system. Makers of optical instruments need to correct optical systems to compensate for aberration.The articles on reflection, refraction and caustics discuss the general features of reflected and refracted rays.
