Glass Place Mat : Refraction of light
Home Decor from Science Photo Library
Refraction of light
Refraction. Two beams of white light, each passed through an equilateral triangular prism. The light is split into its component wavelengths, producing a spectrum. Note the additive colour effects in the crossover of the two spectra

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print from Science Photo Library beautifully captures the mesmerizing phenomenon of light refraction. The image showcases two beams of pure white light passing through an equilateral triangular prism, resulting in a breathtaking display of color and spectral magic. As the light traverses through the prism, it undergoes a process called refraction, causing it to split into its component wavelengths and creating a stunning spectrum. The photograph offers a fascinating glimpse into the intricate world of optics and physics. It highlights how different colors blend together seamlessly, forming additive color effects where the two spectra intersect. This convergence creates an ethereal visual spectacle that is both awe-inspiring and thought-provoking. The triangular shape of the prism adds an element of symmetry to this already captivating scene. Its precise angles play a crucial role in bending and dispersing the incoming light rays, allowing us to witness this extraordinary phenomenon up close. Science Photo Library has masterfully captured this momentous event with exceptional clarity and detail, showcasing their expertise in scientific photography. This print serves as a testament to our ever-growing understanding of the natural world around us while simultaneously reminding us of its inherent beauty.
