Prism
The core uses of a prism include deviating light at a specific angle, while also enabling light deviation and image orientation adjustment. The way it interacts with light is entirely determined by its own design. When light enters a prism, there are mainly two paths of action: one is that light first reflects off one or more surfaces of the prism and then exits; the other is that light is directly refracted while passing through the prism substrate. As an example, the right-angle prism belongs to the former. When light enters, it first reflects off one of its surfaces, ultimately achieving a 90° light deviation. The wedge prism, however, belongs to the latter; since the thickness of its substrate varies, light deviates due to refraction when passing through. Prisms have the following types: dispersive prisms, reflective prisms, roof prisms, etc.
