Deriving Numerical Aperture = N.A.
The geometries of diffraction patterns must match the geometries of acceptance angle.
Spatial deteil vs acceptance angle
Acceptance angle of objective must be wide enough to collect at least first order diffracted rays
Diffraction pattern in the transform plane
Demonstration of diffraction patterns in a test object - (Diatom test slide).
Sugar makers rely on healthy, abundant maple trees to provide sap each spring. Taken together a group of maple trees managed for sap collection is called a sugarbush. Developing a healthy, productive sugarbush takes time and effort. Forests are hi...
As trees form, the size and shape of its stem and crown, will be impacted by living in a low light environment such as the forest's understory. So-called suppressed trees are able to capture just enough sun to survive. Sugar maples growing in the ...
Spatial filtering in the transform plane
Using a small aperture slider to remove diffracted orders in the transform plane eliminates detail in the image plane.
