| Classes of polymers used in integrated optics include acrylates, polyimides, polycarbonates, and olefins. |
| Rayleigh developed laboratory courses in heat, electricity and magnetism, properties of matter, optics, and acoustics. |
| Epoxy or acrylic adhesives are established for use with optical benches, filters, and freestanding optics. |
| In order to properly phase the two telescopes, adaptive optics on both telescopes removed the distortion caused by the Earth's atmosphere. |
| The easiest way to describe light rays and light cones is through geometric optics. |
| By the final moments, cometary dust will have abraded the camera's optics, degrading the quality of the images, and possibly ending transmission. |
