Prism image[edit]
Most prism dispersion images are crude simulations (computer generated), which neglect dispersion inside the prism and some reflections, particularly the image you are adding. Materialscientist (talk) 01:37, 17 February 2012 (UTC)
You may be interested in the discussion of that image at Talk:Prism (optics)#Dispersion_image. The image Dispersive Prism Illustration by Spigget.jpg is too badly flawed to use in any optics article. The behaviour of the light inside the prism is unphysical, i.e. wrong.--Srleffler (talk) 04:07, 17 February 2012 (UTC)
