NOAIDA wants to help you know about biconvex lenses. These lenses are unique, since they are sections of glass or plastic that have been bent. They are made to refract light differently. For a biconvex lens, light passing through it is refracted toward the center of the lens. This is because of the shape they lend. Biconvex lenses are also known as the "convex" lens. They are known as such due to the fact that they bulge outward on both sides.
The biconvex lens has a very essential feature called focal length. Focal length is the distance from the center of a lens to the point where rays of light converge after passing through it. Whenever we say focal length, it is basically about how strong the light bending will be. A shorter focal length biconvex lens causes the light rays to bend more than a longer focal length. Biconvex lenses have been designed in such a way that they can bend light differently from each other.
The other equally important term associated with biconvex lenses is known as Refraction. When light refracts, it is a phenomenon that occurs when the light bends from one material to another. For instance, when light passes through a biconvex lens, it refracts and converges towards the optical center of the lens. Upon bending, the lights converge on a single point. When this bending occurs, it allows us to say that we see images through a lens.
NOAIDA wants to educate you about the types of biconvex lenses. Each type can have various properties by the nature of shape or device. Biconvex lenses are made of glass or plastic. Glass lenses typically display lesser distortion, which enables truer and more realistic images. Not only are they more durable but their longevity exceeds that of plastic lenses. On the other hand glass lenses are much heavier and generally more expensive than plastic lenses.
Biconvex lenses also used for projecting images as well as subject to enlarge the small image. A biconvex lens is one which is thin in shape and has both of its sides curved outwards. This lens directs the light on a screen and allows us to view images or videos at large scales. When these lenses and mirrors are combined in projectors, however, they can create images so bright and clear that a large screen is filled with an image for everyone to see!
Abstract: Some of the important uses of boconvex lenses in our day to day life NOAIDA would like to share with you. One of the most frequent use cases is for glasses. A number of people use eyeglasses to see better. These glasses use biconvex lenses to correct nearsightedness (you can see near but not far) and farsightedness (you can see far but not near). Like magic, biconvex lenses help humans see better and comfortably by bending light in the right fashion.
Before looking into the latest technology in biconvex lenses, lets take a look at how exciting has happened in recent years. However, scientists and researchers developing lenses made from new types of materials stronger than traditional biconvex (BB) glass can create lighter, thinner and stonger BB lenses. This also denoted that the lenses would be easier to use for a lengthier time and much more comfortable. New manufacturing techniques have been developed, which means that lenses can be made with far more interesting and unique shapes and designs. This progress has paved the path to different applications of biconvex lenses in various sectors including astronomy, which allowed us to discover stars afar, and telecommunications that enables our long-distance communication.
