Abstract

In this paper, we will propose a unified approach to ray tracing scattering colors of transparent optical systems. To attain that end, we will first present system theoretical modeling of transparent layered optical systems to obtain an efficient algorithm for computation of their total reflectivirie and transmittivities. Then, with the aid of these preparations, we will develope a new ray tracer to visualize wave optical scattering phenomena of a nested system of transparent objects coated with transparent thin layered media, such as dispersion colors of prisms, interference colors of soap bubbles and Newton rings, as well as optical tunnel effects and resonance scattering.
