CheckPoint 1.11.2: multiple lenses Image of first lens becomes object for second lens, etc... p.a. f1 f2 f2 f1 Lens 1 Lens 2 65% Lens 1 creates a real, inverted and reduced image of the object Lens 2 creates a real, inverted and reduced image of the image from lens 1 The combination gives a real, upright, reduced image of the object 52% DEMO Phys. 102, Lecture 21, Slide 3

Phys. 102, Lecture 21, Slide 8
Compound microscope A compound microscope is made up of two converging lenses Eyepiece (ocular) Acts as a magnifying glass fe Body tube Tube length L = distance between focal points L Objective Creates real, enlarged image of sample object fo fo DEMO Sample Phys. 102, Lecture 21, Slide 9

Modern microscope objectives Most modern objectives are infinity corrected Finite system Infinite system Eyepiece Intermediate image Extra tube lens creates intermediate image Objective creates image at ; rays are || Objective Infinite system allows filters to be inserted in optical path without affecting image Phys. 102, Lecture 21, Slide 13

Phys. 102, Lecture 21, Slide 14
Aberrations Aberrations are imperfections relative to ideal lens Spherical: rays hitting lens at different points focus differently Hubble space telescope Chromatic: rays of different color focus differently White light Where do chromatic aberrations come from? DEMO Phys. 102, Lecture 21, Slide 15
Dispersion The index of refraction n depends on In glass, nblue > ngreen > nred In prism, blue < green < red DEMO red i green blue White light Prism Blue light gets deflected more = = = sin sin sin sin n blue n n n blue green green red red i i Phys. 102, Lecture 21, Slide 16

Ultimate limit of resolution One can play clever tricks with combinations of lenses to compensate for spherical and chromatic aberrations Ultimately, even with ideal lenses resolution of light microscope is limited to ~ of light (~500 nm) Bacillus subtilis We won t understand why using ray picture of light; we have to treat light as a wave again Ray optics works for objects >> Next two lectures!
