Optics is a branch of physics that investigates the properties and behavior of light, emphasizing its interactions with matter and the development of devices that use or detect light.
Light Spectrum:
- Optics primarily focuses on the behavior of visible, ultraviolet, and infrared light.
Scope and Phenomena:
- The science of optics involves the genesis and propagation of light, including the changes it undergoes and the phenomena it creates.
- It covers various aspects related to light and its effects.
Interaction with Instruments:
- Optics also studies the construction and use of instruments that detect light and examines the properties of light through its interactions with matter.
