instrument to measure very small lengths which were primarily used by
opticians to measure the curvature of the surface of a lenses

THEORY AND FORMULA USED
The wavelength of sodium light is given by :-
Where is the diameter of the (m+p)th ring and is the diameter of the mth ring .
R is the radius of curvature of the convex surface of lens and p is a number.
Hence the determination of involves measurement of radius of curvature of the surface of lens in contact with the plate of the glass and diameter of the two rings, the difference of their number being p
Experimental setup
Setting up of crosswire on newton ring
ProcedureUse a short fixed length lens and place it on a
plate of glass.The lenses should be placed or mounted on a
stand such that the rays fall on the glass plate at 45 to the vertical.
The glass plate p was sending the light vertically downwards .
Sodium lamp was switched on .
After obtaining bright fringes , set the cross wire at the center of the central dark ring .
Use screw to move the cross wire to the twentieth bright ring . Note the readings .
Now move the cross wire to nineteenth ring.Repeat it till the cross wire to the twentieth
ring on the left hand side .The radius of curvature of lens is obtained
with the help of a spherometer.

APPLICATIONS OF NEWTON’S RINGS• To measure the refractive index of a substance
placed beneath the same lens.• To check the thickness of a surface and to check
whether a surface is uniform.• The interference technique of Newton’s rings is
widely used for the quality control of optical surfaces because the precision obtained with this method proves to be very satisfactory. The dimensions of the permits calculation of the radii of curvature of the analyzed surfaces and deformation of the interference pattern can be utilized to calculate other parameters such as astigmatism.
1. To check thickness of surface
2. To measure refractive index
3.Interference technique by newton ring experiment.
PRECAUTIONS AND SOURCES OF ERROR
• The lens should be of large radius of curvature.• The sources of light used should be an extended
one.• Before measuring the diameter of the rings , the
range of the microscope should be properly adjusted.
• Glass plates and lens should be cleaned thoroughly.• Crosswire should be focused on a bright ring
tangentially.• Radius of curvature should be measured accurately.
