What are Ghost Images

Ghost images in optical systems are faint second images caused by reflections within an optical component. This optical phenomenon is not to be confused with images of ghosts, spirits, and other spooky apparitions. Learn about this concept from Kristina Kaszei, product support engineer at Edmund Optics. Information about imaging at Edmund optics can be found at www.edmundoptics.com/imaging.
