In optics, dispersion is a phenomenon that causes the separation of a wave into spectral components with different frequencies, due to a dependence of the wave's speed on its frequency.
The overall dispersion of the optical resonator is a major factor in determining the duration of the pulses emitted by the laser.
In the technical terminology of gemology, dispersion is the difference in the refractive index of a material at the B and G Fraunhofer wavelengths of 686.7 nm and 430.8 nm and is meant to express the degree to which a prism cut from the gemstone shows fire or color.
DISPERSION - LoveToKnow Article on DISPERSION (2350 words)
