What will I learn?

This course offers a practical guide to mastering prism refraction and dispersion techniques. Participants learn to create accurate data tables, use Snell's law and minimum deviation approaches, convert beam positions into angles, and handle uncertainty propagation. It covers glass material properties, wavelength-based models, safe laboratory procedures, calibration methods, and effective reporting for reliable, publication-quality results.

Elevify advantages

Develop skills

  • Design prism dispersion experiments by planning geometry, angles, and spectral colours.
  • Calculate refractive index n(λ) using Snell's law, minimum deviation method, and error analysis.
  • Analyse dispersion data against Sellmeier or Cauchy models, including uncertainty calculations.
  • Calibrate and align optical systems to reduce systematic errors for accurate measurements.
  • Interpret prism spectra, compare prisms to gratings, and explain chromatic dispersion effects.
