  • Abbe Number 1 Abbe Number
    Abbe number 1 Abbe number In physics and optics, the Abbe number, also known as the V-number or constringence of a transparent material, is a measure of the material's dispersion (variation of refractive index with wavelength) in relation to the refractive index, with high values of V indicating low dispersion (low chromatic aberration). It is named after Ernst Abbe (1840–1905), the German physicist who defined it. The Abbe number,[2][3] V , of a D material is defined as where n , n and n are the refractive An Abbe diagram plots the Abbe number against refractive index for a range of different D F C glasses (red dots). Glasses are classified using the Schott Glass letter-number code to indices of the material at the reflect their composition and position on the diagram. wavelengths of the Fraunhofer D-, F- and C- spectral lines (589.3 nm, 486.1 nm and 656.3 nm respectively). Abbe numbers are used to classify glass and other optically transparent materials. For example, flint glass has V < 50 and crown glass has V > 50. Typical values of V range from around 20 for very dense flint glass, around 30 for polycarbonate plastics, and up to 65 for very light crown glass, and up to 85 for fluor-crown glass. Abbe numbers are only a useful measure of dispersion Influences of selected glass component additions on the Abbe [1] for visible light, and for other number of a specific base glass. wavelengths, or for higher precision work, the group velocity dispersion is used.

Fischer and Biljana Tadic-Galeb, published by SPIE Press and McGraw-Hill. There are several software programs that are available to help design an optical system. But the software can’t give the designer all of the practical considerations with regard to making the lenses. “Optical Manufacturing Considerations” addresses the most common manufacturing issues that push out delivery or drive up cost. A little effort to deal with these issues at the design phase will save time and money. Bob Wiederhold and I were grateful for the opportunity to contribute our manufacturing expertise to this ‘down to earth’ text about optical design. It is now out as a 2nd Edition with additional technical information and examples. This book is a useful desk reference for everyone involved with optical systems.

  • 33Rd Edition
    33rd Edition DIC : 2536 Glossary Strain point A temperature at which internal stress in glass is removed in several hours. Below this temperature thermal stress is not substantially generated, so this would be the standard temperature for heat resistance. Annealing point A temperature at which internal stress in glass is removed in several minutes. This would be the standard temperature for annealing. Transformation point A temperature at which the inclination of the thermal expansion curve suddenly changes. This corresponds to the transformation of glass from solid state to liquid state. Deformation point A temperature at which thermal expansion is not any more detected in the measurement because of softening of glass. It appears as a peak of the expansion curve. Softening point A temperature at which glass deforms noticeably by its own weight. There are two measurement methods, fiber elongation method and differential thermal analysis (DTA). The measurements from both methods do not coincide. Softening point for powder glass is usually measured with DTA. Working point A temperature at which viscosity of the glass is 104dPa・s. It is a standard temperature for glass forming such as tubing and pressing. Glass flowing point A temperature at which viscosity of the glass is 105dPa・s.
