Optics 2 Question 24

24. If two structures of same cross-sectional area, but different numerical apertures NA1 and NA2(NA2<NA1) are joined longitudinally, the numerical aperture of the combined structure is

(2015 Adv.)

(b) NA1+NA2

(c) NA1

(d) NA2

Show Answer

Answer:

Correct Answer: 24. (d)

Solution:

  1. (1) sinim=n1sin(90θc)

sinim=n1cosθc

NA=n11sin2θc

=n11n22n12=n12n22

Substituting the values we get,

NA1=34 and NA2=155=34NA2<NA1

Therefore, the numerical aperture of combined structure is equal to the lesser of the two numerical aperture, which is NA2.
