Lenses

  • Chapter
Engineering Optics

Abstract

Lenses are among the most used components in optical systems. The functions that lenses perform include the convergence or divergence of light beams, and the formation of virtual or real images. An additional interesting property of lenses is that they can be used for optically performing the two-dimensional Fourier transform.
