### The mirror |
|||
|
|||
#### What is a mirror ? |
|||
|
|||
##### Objective |
|||
|
|||
* initial : to **reflect** light, to **focus or disperse light**. |
|||
* Ultimate : to **realize images**, alone or as part of optical instruments. |
|||
|
|||
##### Physical principle |
|||
|
|||
* uses the **phenomenon of reflection**, described by the law of reflection. |
|||
|
|||
##### Constitution |
|||
|
|||
* Usually plane or curved (spherical for the most simple to realize, |
|||
parabolic or elliptical) **surface, highly polished** so that its surface |
|||
state deviates from its theoretical form of less than $`\lambda/10`$ at each point |
|||
of its surface ($`\lambda`$ being the wavelength in vacuum of the light to be reflected). |
|||
To increase the reflectivity of the mirror (percentage of reflected light |
|||
intensity per the total of the incident light intensity), the surface is |
|||
**most often metallized**. |
|||
|
|||
##### Interest in optics |
|||
|
|||
* **One of the most importante simple optical component** that is used *alone or combined in a series in most optical instruments* : |
|||
some telephotos, reflecting telescopes. |
|||
|
|||
#### Why to study plane and spherical mirrors? |
|||
|
|||
* **Plane and spherical mirrors** are the *most technically easy to realize*, |
|||
so they are the *most common and cheap*. |
|||
* In paraxial optics, the optical properties of a **plane mirror** are those |
|||
of a *spherical mirror whose radius of curvature tends towards infinity*. |
|||
Plane mirror, concave and convex spherical mirror |

|||
|
|||
#### Are plane and spherical mirrors stigmatic? |
|||
|
|||
##### Perfect stigmatism of the plane mirror |
|||
|
|||
* A plane mirror is **perfectly stigmatic**. |
|||
* Object and image are symmetrical on both side of the surface of the plane mirror.<br> |
|||
$`\Longrightarrow`$ A real object gives a virtual image.<br> |
|||
nbsp; A virtual object gives a real image. |
|||
|
|||
##### Non stigmatism of the spherical mirror |
|||
|
|||
* In each point of the spherical mirror, the law of reflection applies. |
|||
* A spherical mirror is not stigmatic: The rays (or their extensions) coming from an object point generally do not converge towards an image point (see Fig. 2.) |
|||
* A spherical mirrors with a limited aperture (see the angle $`\alpha`$ (rad) which is reduced on Fig. 3. and 4.) and used so that |
|||
angles of incidence remain small (see Fig. 4.) become quasi-stigmatic. |
|||
|
|||
<br> |
|||
Fig. 2. Non stigmatism of a convexe mirror. |
|||
|
|||
<br> |
|||
Fig. 3. But when we limit the aperture of the mirror |
|||
|
|||
<br> |
|||
Fig. 4 . and limit the conditions of use to small angles of incidence, then a image point can almost be defined : the mirror becomes |
|||
quasi-stigmatic. |
|||
|
|||
|
|||
##### Gauss conditions / paraxial approximation and quasi-stigmatism |
|||
|
|||
* When spherical mirrors are used under the following conditions, named **Gauss conditions** :<br> |
|||
\- The *angles of incidence are small*<br> |
|||
(the rays are slightly inclined on the optical axis, and intercept the spherical mirror in the |
|||
vicinity of its vertex),<br> |
|||
then the spherical mirrors can be considered *quasi- stigmatic*, and therefore they |
|||
*can be used to build optical images*. |
|||
|
|||
* Mathematically, when an angle $`i`$ is small ($`i < or \approx 10 ^\circ`$), the following |
|||
approximations can be made :<br> |
|||
$`sin(i) \approx tan (i) \approx i`$ (rad), et $`cos(i) \approx 1`$. |
|||
|
|||
* Geometrical optics limited to Gaussian conditions is called **Gaussian optical** or **paraxial optics**. |
|||
|
|||
#### The thin spherical mirror (paraxial optics) |
|||
|
|||
* We call **thin spherical mirror** a *spherical mirror used in the Gauss conditions*. |
|||
|
|||
##### Analytical study (in paraxial optics) |
|||
|
|||
* **Spherical mirror equation** = **conjuction equation** for a spherical mirror :<br><br> |
|||
$`\dfrac{1}{\overline{SA_{ima}}}+\dfrac{1}{\overline{SA_{obj}}}=\dfrac{2}{\overline{SC}}`$ (equ.1) |
|||
|
|||
* **Transverse magnification expression** :<br><br> |
|||
$`\overline{M_T}=-\dfrac{\overline{SA_{ima}}}{\overline{SA_{obj}}}`$ (equ.2) |
|||
|
|||
You know $`\overline{SA_{obj}}`$ , calculate $`\overline{SA_{ima}}`$ using (equ. 1) |
|||
then $`\overline{M_T}`$ with (equ.2), and deduce $`\overline{A_{ima}B_{ima}}`$. |
|||
|
|||
! *USEFUL 1* :<br> |
|||
! The conjunction equation and the transverse magnification equation for a plane mirror |
|||
! are obtained by rewriting these two equations for a spherical mirror in the limit when |
|||
! $`|\overline{SC}|\longrightarrow\infty`$. |
|||
! Then we get for a plane mirror : $`\overline{SA_{ima}}= - \overline{SA_{obj}}`$ and $`\overline{M_T}=+1`$. |
|||
|
|||
! *USEFUL 2* :<br> |
|||
! *You can find* the conjunction and the transverse magnification *equations for a plane or spherical mirror as well as for a plane refracting surface directly from |
|||
! those of the spherical refracting surface*, with the following assumptions :<br> |
|||
! - to go from refracting surface to mirror : $`n_{eme}=-n_{inc}`$<br> |
|||
! (to memorize : medium of incidence=medium of emergence, therefor same speed of light, but direction |
|||
! of propagation reverses after reflection on the mirror)<br> |
|||
! - to go from spherical to plane : $`|\overline{SC}|\longrightarrow\infty`$. |
|||
! Then we get for a plane mirror :<br> |
|||
! $`\overline{SA_{ima}}= - \overline{SA_{obj}}`$ and $`\overline{M_T}=+1`$ |
|||
|
|||
##### Graphical study |
|||
|
|||
*1 - Determining object and image focal points* |
|||
|
|||
Positions of object focal point F and image focal point F’ are easily obtained from the conjunction |
|||
equation (equ. 1). |
|||
|
|||
* Image focal length $`\overline{OF'}`$ : $`\left(|\overline{OA_{obj}}|\rightarrow\infty\Rightarrow A_{ima}=F'\right)`$<br><br> |
|||
(equ.1) $`\Longrightarrow\dfrac{1}{\overline{SF'}}=\dfrac{2}{\overline{SC}}\Longrightarrow\overline{SF'}=\dfrac{\overline{SC}}{2}`$ |
|||
|
|||
* Object focal length $`\overline{OF}`$ : $`\left(|\overline{OA_{ima}}|\rightarrow\infty\Rightarrow A_{obj}=F\right)`$<br><br> |
|||
(equ.2) $`\Longrightarrow\dfrac{1}{\overline{SF}}=\dfrac{2}{\overline{SC}}\Longrightarrow\overline{SF}=\dfrac{\overline{SC}}{2}`$ |
|||
|
|||
*2 - Thin spherical mirror representation* |
|||
|
|||
* **Optical axis = revolution axis** of the mirror, positively **oriented** in the direction of propagation of the incident light. |
|||
|
|||
* Thin spherical mirror equation :<br><br> |
|||
\-**line segment**, perpendicular to the optical axis, centered on the axis with symbolic *indication of the |
|||
direction of curvature* of the surface at its extremities, and *dark or hatched area on the non-reflective |
|||
side* of the mirror.<br><br> |
|||
\-**vertex S**, that indicates the position of the mirror along the optical axis;<br><br> |
|||
\-**nodal point C = center of curvature**.<br><br> |
|||
\-**object focal point F** and **image focal point F’**. |
