2. The Simple Magnifier What do we do with an object when we really want to look at it closely?
We bring it up as close to our eye as possible.
In this way light from it illuminates as large an area on our retina as possible
More receptors activated implies more detail seen
Of course we are limited as to how close we can bring object by the accomodation limits of our eyes Simple Magnifier PrinciplesSimple Magnifier Principles
3. Angular magnification A.k.a. magnifying power
MA = ?a/ ?u .
?a is (aided) angle subtended at eye by image at eye when magnifier is used
?u is angle (unaided) angle subtended by image at eye when magnifier is NOT used.
Angular magnificationAngular magnification
4. Fooling the eye again We can use a positive (convex) lens to form an image at the near point or “at infinity” that will subtend the same angle as at the close distance. Fooling the eye againFooling the eye again
5. Ray Diagram Ray diagram for virtual image in + lens Ray diagram for positive lensRay diagram for positive lens
6. Mathematics The angle ? subtended at the lens by the object (angle OCO’) equals the angle subtended by the image (angle ICI’)
The Gauss thin lens equation insists that
1/ so + 1/ si = 1/ f
Geometry
?u = yo / dn
?o = yo / so MathematicsMathematics
7. Result MA = ?a / ?u .
MA= dn / so .
MA= dn x (1 / f - 1 / si )
If the eye is relaxed si is “- infinity”
MA= dn / f
If maximum accommodation is used then
Si = - dn .
MA = dn / f + 1 Angular magnification of simple magnifier in two simple cases.Angular magnification of simple magnifier in two simple cases.
8. The convention By convention the near point distance is that of 40 year old males
dn = 25.4 cm or 25 cm
MA = 25.4 / f or 25 / f when we measure f in centimeters. (Image at infinity)
MA = 25.4 / f + 1 or 25 / f + 1 (max. magnification) The conventional numbersThe conventional numbers
9. Two-lens systems Optical systems such as telescopes and microscopes are often modeled as two- lens systems.
The lens (or mirror) that collects the light from the object is called the objective.
The eyepiece (ocular) is a lens or a collection of lenses which is used to view the image formed by the objective.
Even the collection is modeled as a single lens. Two- lens systems.Two- lens systems.
10. Details of Two lens System Hecht develops the arithmetic of the two lens system in Example 24.8 in both versions of the textbook.
si1 =(f2d-f2[so1f1/(so1-f1)])/(d – f2 –[s01f1/(so1-f1)])
d is here the distance between the center planes of the lenses
d = f1 + L + f2
L is called the “optical tube length” DetailsDetails
11. Applied two lens systems. But here we look at the two most common “special cases” of the two-lens system—the telescope and the microscope
Lens 1 (the lens that the light penetrates first) is called the “objective lens”
Lens 2 (the lens that the light strikes second) is called the “eyepiece” or “ocular”
It is generally a set of 3 or more lenses here replaced by a single equivalent thin lens.
The many lens version corrects for various abberrations we are ignoring here. Applied two-lens systems.Applied two-lens systems.
12. Notation redux yo1 = height of object
s01 = distance of object from objective
yi1 = height of intermediate image
yo2 = height of intermediate image acting as object for ocular = yi1
si1 = distance of intermediate image from objective lens
so2 = distance of intermediate image from ocular
si2 = final image distance from ocular
Notation collected and summarized.Notation collected and summarized.
13. Notation continued fO = f1 = focal length of objective
fE = f2 = focal length of eyepiece
d = distance from ocular to object
L = “optical tube length” = distance between second principal focus of objective and 1st principal focus of ocular (2nd principal focus in case of Galilean telescope)
MTO = transverse magnification of objective lens
MTE = transverse magnification of ocular
MA = angular magnification of system Notation continuedNotation continued
14. Compute angular magnification MA = ?a / ?u
In the small angle, paraxial ray approx.
?u = yo1 / d
?a = yi2 / si2 .
MA = (yi2 / si2 ) / (yo1 / d) = (yi2/yo2)(yo2/yo1)(d/si2) = (yi2/yo2)(yi1/yo1)(d/si2)=
(-(si2/so2))(-si1/so1))(d/si2) = MTOMTE (d / si2)
MA = (d si1) / (so2 so1)
The final “image distance” has “canceled out.” Compute the general angular magnification in small angle, thin lens approximationCompute the general angular magnification in small angle, thin lens approximation
15. Telescopes Keplerian (astronomical) telescope
Both ocular and objective lenses are positive
Final image is “inverted”
Intermediate image formed very near 2nd principal focal point of the objective and 1st principal focal point of the ocular
Galilean (terrestrial) telescope
Objective is positive , ocular negative
Final image is “erect.” TelescopesTelescopes
16. Telescope approximations MA = (d si1) / (so2 so1)
d = so1 .
si1 = fO
so2 = fE
MA = fO / fE. = DE / DO
For large magnification, low power objective and high power objectives are desired. For the telescopeFor the telescope
17. Microscope Approximations MA = (d si1) / (so2 so1)
d = L
Si1 = L
So1 = fO
So2 = fE
MA = L2/(fOfE) = DODE L2 .
The “optical tube length” L is usually set by manufacturers at 16 cm.
For large magnification use high power objectives and oculars. Microscope ApproximationsMicroscope Approximations

19. Hecht’s formula Hecht’s formula differs a little bit from ours
He has used slightly different approximations.
MA = Ldn / (fOfE)
= 160 mm x 254 mm / (fOfE)
The main point is that the magnification is proportional to the product of the lens powers in both formulations. Hecht’s formulaHecht’s formula

26. Rayleigh Criterion Lord Rayleigh (John William Strutt) enunciated a resolution criterion
Two objects can be discerned as separate when the central diffraction maximum of one lies on the first diffraction minimum of the second.
?a = 1.22 ? / D (radians)
As in golf, the smaller, the better.
