Dichroic filter — Dichroic filters A dichroic filter, thin film filter, or interference filter is a very accurate color filter used to selectively pass light of a small range of colors while reflecting other colors. By comparison, dichroic mirrors and dichroic… … Wikipedia
Dichroic glass — A pendant made from dichroic glass Dichroic glass is glass containing multiple micro layers of metals or oxides which give the glass dichroic optical properties. The main characteristic of dichroic glass is that it has a particular transmitted… … Wikipedia
Dichroic prism — A trichroic prism assembly A dichroic prism is a prism that splits light into two beams of differing wavelength (colour). They are usually constructed of one or more glass prisms with dichroic optical coatings that selectively reflect or transmit … Wikipedia

Index of optics articles — Optics is the branch of physics which involves the behavior and properties of light, including its interactions with matter and the construction of instruments that use or detect it.[1] Optics usually describes the behavior of visible,… … Wikipedia
Filter (optics) — Coloured and Neutral Density filters Optical filters are devices which selectively transmit light of different wavelengths, usually implemented as plane glass or plastic devices in the optical path which are either dyed in the mass or have… … Wikipedia
Prism (optics) — For other uses, see Prism (disambiguation). A plastic prism In optics, a prism is a transparent optical element with flat, polished surfaces that refract light. The exact angles between the surfaces depend on the application. The traditional… … Wikipedia
