Difference between Crown glass (optics) and Refracting telescope

Crown glass (optics) vs. Refracting telescope

Crown glass is a type of optical glass used in lenses and other optical components. A refracting telescope (also called a refractor) is a type of optical telescope that uses a lens as its objective to form an image (also referred to a dioptric telescope).

Similarities between Crown glass (optics) and Refracting telescope

Crown glass (optics) and Refracting telescope have 9 things in common (in Unionpedia): Achromatic lens, Chromatic aberration, Dispersion (optics), Flint glass, Fluorite, Focal length, Glass, John Dollond, Lens (optics).

Achromatic lens

An achromatic lens or achromat is a lens that is designed to limit the effects of chromatic and spherical aberration.

Chromatic aberration

In optics, chromatic aberration (abbreviated CA; also called chromatic distortion and spherochromatism) is an effect resulting from dispersion in which there is a failure of a lens to focus all colors to the same convergence point.

Dispersion (optics)

In optics, dispersion is the phenomenon in which the phase velocity of a wave depends on its frequency.

Flint glass

Flint glass is optical glass that has relatively high refractive index and low Abbe number (high dispersion).

Fluorite

Not to be confused with Fluoride. Fluorite (also called fluorspar) is the mineral form of calcium fluoride, CaF2.

Focal length

The focal length of an optical system is a measure of how strongly the system converges or diverges light.

Glass

Glass is a non-crystalline amorphous solid that is often transparent and has widespread practical, technological, and decorative usage in, for example, window panes, tableware, and optoelectronics.

John Dollond

John Dollond FRS (10 June O.S. (21 June N.S.) 170630 November 1761) was an English optician, known for his successful optics business and his patenting and commercialization of achromatic doublets.

Lens (optics)

A lens is a transmissive optical device that focuses or disperses a light beam by means of refraction.
