This formula uses 4 Variables
Variables Used
Apparent Refractive Index - Apparent Refractive Index is a dimensionless quantity that describes how much light is slowed down or refracted when entering a medium compared to its speed in a vacuum.
Refractive Index of Medium 1 - Refractive Index of Medium 1 is the ratio of speed of light in vacuum to speed of light in medium 1.
Positive Constant - Positive Constant is a number greater than zero that does not change with time.
Radius of Lens - (Measured in Meter) - Radius of Lens is defined as the distance between the centre of curvature of the lens and the edge of the lens.
STEP 1: Convert Input(s) to Base Unit
Refractive Index of Medium 1: 1.5 --> No Conversion Required
Positive Constant: 10000 --> No Conversion Required
Radius of Lens: 0.0025 Meter --> 0.0025 Meter No Conversion Required
STEP 2: Evaluate Formula
Substituting Input Values in Formula
nr = n1*(1-(Acon*Rlens^2)/2) --> 1.5*(1-(10000*0.0025^2)/2)
Evaluating ... ...

What is the significance of variable refractive index?

When refractive index varies in a controlled way, the combining of the refraction which occurs at the surface of the lens with that an image can be produced that is immune to aberrations that are non-idealities of lenses.

How to Calculate Variable Refractive Index of The GRIN Lens?

Variable Refractive Index of The GRIN Lens calculator uses Apparent Refractive Index = Refractive Index of Medium 1*(1-(Positive Constant*Radius of Lens^2)/2) to calculate the Apparent Refractive Index, Variable Refractive Index of The GRIN Lens (Gradient Index) formula is defined as the refractive index of the cylindrical lens that varies with the radius of the lens. Here, RI is the refractive index on the lens axis, and A is a positive constant. Apparent Refractive Index is denoted by nr symbol.
