Optical Components
Optical components are devices that manipulate light to achieve a desired effect, such as creating images or changing light paths. Common examples include lenses, which can focus or disperse light; mirrors, which reflect light; and prisms, which can split or bend light into different colors. These components are essential in various applications, from cameras and microscopes to eyeglasses and telescopes. By understanding how light interacts with these components, we can harness its properties for clearer vision, better photography, advanced scientific research, and many other technologies.
