A glass block is constructed by three parallel layers of different glasses as shown in Figure A3. The refractive indices of the three layers are 1.70, 1.60 and 1.50, respectively. A light ray which travels into the glass block with an incident angle of 32∘ then emits from the bottom surface of the block. Find the refracted angle r of the transmitted ray Figure A3
![Imaging with a Thick Lens. Consider a glass lens of refractive index n , the z axis and thickness d , and two spherical surfaces of equal radii R as shown in Figure 3.1. Determine the ray-transfer matrix of the system between the two planes at distances d 1 and d 2 from the vertices of the lens. The lens is placed in air ( n = 1 ) . Show that the system is an imaging system (i.e., the input and output planes are conjugate) if 1 z 1 + 1 z 2 = 1 f or s 1 s 2 = f 2 , where z 1 = d 1 + h s 1 = z 1 − f z 2 = d 2 + h s 2 = z 2 − f and h = ( n − 1 ) f d n R 1 f = n − 1 R [ 2 − n − 1 n d R ] The points F 1 and F 2 are known as the front and back focal points, respectively. The points P 1 and P 2 are known as the first and second principal points, respectively. Show the importance of these points by tracing the trajectories of rays that are incident parallel to the optical axis. Figure 3.1: Imaging with a thick lens. P 1 and P 2 are the principal points and F 1 and F 2 are the focal points. Imaging with a Thick Lens.
