`
`Interaction of light with matter
`
`Imaging generally records the interaction of light or
`radiation with the subject. except for self—luminous or
`emissiye subjects and uses lenses or optical systems
`to form an image at. the photoplane of a camera. Thorn
`are four principal efl'ects of the interaction of light
`with an object. namely absorption. reflection. trans—
`mission. and chemical change. The first two of these
`always occur to some extent: transmission occurs in
`the case of translucent or transparent matter, and
`chemical change occurs under appropriate circum-
`stances. The absorbed light energy is not destroyed.
`but converted to another such as heat. or sometimes
`electrical or chemical energy. This chapter details the
`behaviour of reflected or transmitted light. and the
`fonnstion of an optical image.
`
`Transmission
`
`t and translucent materials allow -
`
`Some u'ansparen
`light to pass completely through them apart from
`absorption losses. Such light is said to be transmitted
`and the transmittance {T} of the material is the ratio
`of emergent luminous flux to incident luminous flux.
`Direct transmission (sometimes miscalled 'specular
`transmission“)
`refers to light
`transmitted without
`scatter. as for example by clear optical glass. If
`retentive absorption takes place for particular wave-
`lengths of incident white light. men the material is
`seen as coloured by nansrnitted light. as in the ease of
`a camera filter. Ifscoitering occurs. as in a mluocot
`medium.
`the light undergoes difi'usc transmission.
`which may be uniform or directional or preferential.
`The nansrnittance of such a medium may be defined
`asiucitherageneral or Inaspecrlicdircction.
`
`Reflection
`
`Depending on the nature of the surface. particularly
`its smoothness. the reflection of light may be direct or
`artful-e. Direct or specular reflection is the type of
`reflection given by a highly polished octane such as
`a mirror, and is subject to the lows of reflection

`if the object is near the lens. the position and also

`The image plane in which this image is formed is

`and the optical axis is termed the rearprinclpalfocas

`from this point to the lens is termed the focal lengrh

`image distance or conjugate {tr} from the lens cor-re-
`spond to the focal length. As the object approaches

`compound lens could be treated as an equivalent thin
`one. and thin—lens formulae used to compute image
`properties. provided that
`the. object and image
`conjugate distances were measured from two theoret~
`ical planes fixed Itlrith reference to the lens. This is
`referred to as Gaussian optics. and holds for paraxial
`conditions. i.e. for rays whose angle of incidence to
`the optical axis is less than some ill degrees.
`Gaussian optics uses silt defined cardinal or Garass
`points for any single lens or system of lenses. Those
`are tvro principal focal pcrir'rts'+ tvro principal paints
`and torn nodal points. The corresponding planes
`through those points orthogonal to the optical axis are
`called the focal planes, principal planes and nodal
`planes respectively {Figure 4.911}. The focal length of
`a lens is then defined as the distance from a given
`principal point: to the chrespondiug prhscipal focal
`point. So a lens has two focal lengths. an object focal
`length and an image focal length; these are. however.

`The definitjmrs and properties of the cardinal
