Refraction of Light
The meaning and cause of refraction--as well as Snell's law of refraction--are discussed. Includes an interactive problem-solving form in which visitors relate angles of refraction to the incident angle and the indices of refraction.

Ntnu Virtual Physics Lab: Find the Fastest Path
Chinese-language Java applet illustrating Fermat's principle that light follows the fastest path between any two points. Excellent animation and accompanying text. Relates Fermat's principle to Snell's law.

Ntnu Virtual Physics Lab: Thin Lens Combination
A Java applet which allows the user to emulate a refracting telescope and a light microscope. This is a great site to get information on the subject and better understand it through diagrams and charts.
