Suppose you have a lens system that is to be used primarily for 620-nm light. What is the second thinnest coating of fluorite (calcium fluoride) that would be non-reflective for this wavelength? × nm 434
The angle between the axes of two polarizing filters is 19.0°. By how much does the second filter reduce the intensity of the light coming through the first? I = 0.106 40 x
An oil slick on water is 82.3 nm thick and illuminated by white light incident perpendicular to its surface. What color does the oil appear (what is the most constructively reflected wavelength, in nanometers), given its index of refraction is 1.43? (Assume the index of refraction of water is 1.33.) wavelength color 675 × nm red (1 660 nm)
