- Use a soft cloth to clean the lens.
- Place the lens on a hard surface.
- Use a toothpick or other sharp object to lightly scrape away the Newton rings.
- Use a soft cloth to buff the lens until it is clear.

FAQ
What are Newton’s rings?
Newton’s rings are an optical phenomenon in which concentric circles are seen when a thin film of uniform thickness is illuminated by a beam of monochromatic light. The cause of this effect is interference between light waves reflected from the top and bottom surfaces of the film. The interference is constructive when the path difference between the two waves is an integer multiple of the wavelength of the light, and destructive when the path difference is an odd multiple of half the wavelength. The thickness of the film can be determined by measuring the radius of the central maximum or minimum.
What causes Newton’s rings?
Newton’s rings are a type of interference pattern that is produced when light reflects off of a curved surface, such as a lens. The pattern is created because the waves of light that reflect off the top of the curve interfere with the waves of light that reflect off the bottom of the curve. The result is a series of light and dark rings.
How can Newton’s rings be prevented?
The most common method to prevent Newton’s rings is to use an aplanatic lens. This type of lens is designed to eliminate spherical aberration, which is the cause of Newton’s rings.
How can Newton’s rings be fixed?
Newton’s rings are a type of optical interference pattern that is formed when light waves reflect off of a curved surface, such as a lens. The rings are named after Isaac Newton, who first described them in 1666.
The rings are created when light waves from a point source (such as a laser) reflect off of the surface of a lens. The waves reflect off of the surface in a curved path, and they interfere with each other to create a series of dark and light rings.
The spacing of the rings is determined by the radius of curvature of the lens. The width of the rings is determined by the wavelength of the light.
Newton’s rings can be fixed by using a lens with a different radius of curvature, or by using light with a different wavelength.
What are the consequences of Newton’s rings?
Newton’s rings are an optical phenomenon that occurs when light waves reflect off of a curved surface. The reflected light waves interfere with each other, creating a pattern of concentric circles. The number of rings depends on the curvature of the surface and the wavelength of the light. The rings are named after Isaac Newton, who first described them in 1671.
The consequences of Newton’s rings depend on the particular application. For example, in optics, Newton’s rings can be used to measure the curvature of a lens or mirror. In photography, Newton’s rings can cause glare and distortion in images. In printing, Newton’s rings can indicate the level of flatness of a printing surface.
