How a Lens creates an Image.
Huygens Optics
@huygensopticsAbout
Hi, my name is Jeroen and on the Huygens Optics channel I publish videos on personal projects. My main fields of interest are optics, mechanics and photolithography. The videos aren't targeted towards a general audience but for people with a passion for science and technology (e.g. my fellow nerds). The channel is named after the famous Dutch mathematician, astronomer and inventor Christiaan Huygens (1629-1695). He was the first to publish a mathematical description of the wave properties of light, and also discovered Saturn's rings. I make these videos for fun, without a financial motivation. Please don't contact me for sponsoring contracts or in-video advertisement. Neither me nor my viewers are interested. If you want to contribute as a viewer, you can do so by either donating using the Paypal link or by using the Patreon account: https://www.patreon.com/huygens_optics Your donation helps me to make better videos.

This book series is absolutely awesome. They made me enjoy my high school physics classes and that is why I held on to them for 40 years. The video contains a short audio clip that is inspired on "another one bites the dust" by Queen. I did not use the original drums and bass but, Freddy himself did contribute in his own special way. I consider this fair use but if you are the copyright owner, please contact me in case you consider this a copyright breach. Today on the date of video publication it is 32 years ago exactly that Freddy Mercury died of Aids. Apparently, the lady in the compression images is named Lena. If I had known the history behind the image and why it became so famous, I would probably not have used it: https://pursuit.unimelb.edu.au/articles/it-s-time-to-retire-lena-from-computer-science A correction about the name of ASML: currently, this is the actual name of the company, so without any reference to the origin of the abbreviation. Advanced Semiconductor Materials Lithography was the name of the joint venture of ASM (founded by Arthur del Prado) and Philips Electronics, intended for the development of photolithography machines. Did I forget to mention you? Please contact me and I will sort it out.
