  2. Parallelepiped - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Parallelepiped

    a prism of which the base is a parallelogram. The rectangular cuboid (six rectangular faces), cube (six square faces), and the rhombohedron (six rhombus faces) are all specific cases of parallelepiped.

  3. Refraction - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Refraction

    Optical prisms and lenses use refraction to redirect light, as does the human eye. The refractive index of materials varies with the wavelength of light, [3] and thus the angle of the refraction also varies correspondingly. This is called dispersion and causes prisms and rainbows to divide white light into its constituent spectral colors. [4]

  4. Corrective lens - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Corrective_lens

    Higher-quality optical-grade glass materials exist (e.g. Borosilicate crown glasses such as BK7 ( n d = 1.51680 , V d = 64.17 , D = 2.51 g/cm³ ), which is commonly used in telescopes and binoculars, and fluorite crown glasses such as the best optical quality low dispersion glass currently in production, N-FK58 made by the German company Schott ...

  5. Adjustable-focus eyeglasses - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Adjustable-focus_eyeglasses

    Adjustable focus eyeglasses are eyeglasses with an adjustable focal length. They compensate for refractive errors (such as presbyopia ) by providing variable focusing, allowing users to adjust them for desired distance or prescription, or both.

  6. Lead glass - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lead_glass

    Cut glass wine glass made of lead glass. Lead glass, commonly called crystal, is a variety of glass in which lead replaces the calcium content of a typical potash glass. [1] Lead glass contains typically 18–40% (by mass) lead(II) oxide (PbO), while modern lead crystal, historically also known as flint glass due to the original silica source, contains a minimum of 24% PbO. [2]

  7. Compound prism - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Compound_prism

    While the doublet prism is the simplest compound prism type, the double-Amici prism is much more common. This prism is a three-element system (a triplet), in which the first and third elements share both the same glass and the same apex angles. The design layout is thus symmetric about the plane passing through the center of its second element.
