Explanation:
Refractive Index (Index of Refraction)
Figure 1 - Refraction of Light.
Formula 1 - Snell's Law. n 1 × sin(θ 1) = n 2 × sin(θ2)
Formula 2 - Numerical Aperture. NA (numerical aperture) = n × sin(θ)
Formula 3 - Refractive Index (or Index of Refraction) n = c/η
Explanation:
Refractive index, also called index of refraction, measure of the bending of a ray of light when passing from one medium into another. If i is the angle of incidence of a ray in vacuum (angle between the incoming ray and the perpendicular to the surface of a medium, called the normal) and r is the angle of refraction (angle between the ray in the medium and the normal), the refractive index n is defined as the ratio of the sine of the angle of incidence to the sine of the angle of refraction; i.e., n = sin i / sin r. Refractive index is also equal to the velocity of light c of a given wavelength in empty space divided by its velocity v in a substance, or n = c/v.
