Compound prism
A compound prism is a set of multiple triangular prism elements placed in contact, and often cemented together to form a solid assembly.〔John Browning, "Note on the use of compound prisms," ''MNRAS'' 31: 203-205 (1871).〕 The use of multiple elements gives several advantages to an optical designer:〔Nathan Hagen and Tomasz S. Tkaczyk, "(Compound prism design principles, I )," ''Appl. Opt.'' 50: 4998-5011 (2011).〕
* One can achieve spectral dispersion without causing the deviation of the beam at the design wavelength. Thus, light at the design wavelength which enters at an angle \theta_0 with respect to the optical axis, exits the prism at the same angle with respect to the same axis. This kind of effect is often called "direct vision dispersion" or "nondeviating dispersion".〔Charles G. Abbott and Frederick E. Fowle, Jr., "A prism of uniform dispersion," ''Astrophys. J.'' 11: 135-139 (1900).〕
* One can achieve deviation of the incident beam while also greatly reducing the dispersion introduced into the beam: an achromatic deflecting prism. This effect is used in beam steering.〔Bradley D. Duncan, Philip J. Bos, and Vassili Sergan, "Wide-angle achromatic prism beam steering for infrared countermeasure applications," ''Opt. Eng'' 42: 1038-1047 (2003).〕〔Zhilin Hu and Andrew M. Rollins, "Fourier domain optical coherence tomography with a linear-in-wavenumber spectrometer," ''Opt. Lett.'' 32: 3525-3527 (2007).〕
* One can tune the prism dispersion to achieve greater dispersion linearity or to achieve higher-order dispersion effects.
==Doublet==

The simplest compound prism is a doublet, consisting of two elements in contact, as shown in the figure at right. A ray of light passing through the prism is refracted at the first air-glass interface, again at the interface between the two glasses, and a final time at the exiting glass-air interface. The deviation angle \delta of the ray is given by the difference in ray angle between the incident ray and the exiting ray: \delta = \theta_0 - \theta_4. While one can produce direct vision dispersion from doublet prisms, there is typically significant displacement of the beam (shown as a separation between the two dashed horizontal lines in the ''y'' direction). Mathematically, one can calculate \delta by concatenating the Snell's law equations at each interface,〔
:
\begin
\theta_1 &= \theta_0 - \beta_1 &\theta_3 &= \theta'_2 - \alpha_2 \\
\theta'_1 &= \arcsin (\tfrac \, \sin \theta_1) \quad &\theta'_3 &= \arcsin (n_2 \, \sin \theta_3) \\
\theta_2 &= \theta'_1 - \alpha_1 &\theta_4 &= \theta'_3 + \tfrac \alpha_2 \\
\theta'_2 &= \arcsin (\tfrac \, \sin \theta_2)
\end

so that the deviation angle is a nonlinear function of the glass refractive indices n_1 (\lambda) and n_2 (\lambda), the prism elements' apex angles \alpha_1 and \alpha_2, and the angle of incidence \theta_0 of the ray. Note that \alpha_i indicates that the prism is inverted (the apex points downward).
If the angle of incidence \theta_0 and prism apex angle \alpha are both small, then \sin \theta \approx \theta and \text (x) \approx x, so that the nonlinear equation in the deviation angle \delta can be approximated by the linear form
:
\delta (\lambda) = \big(n_1 (\lambda - 1 \big ) \alpha_1 + \big(n_2 (\lambda) - 1 \big ) \alpha_2 \ .

(See also Prism deviation angle and dispersion.) If we further assume that the wavelength dependence to the refractive index is approximately linear, then the dispersion can be written as
:
\Delta = \frac + \frac \ ,

where \delta_i and V_i are the dispersion and Abbe number of element i within the compound prism, V_i = (\bar - 1) / (n_F - n_C). The central wavelength of the spectrum is denoted \bar.
Doublet prisms are often used for direct-vision dispersion. In order to design such a prism, we let \bar = 0, and simultaneously solving equations \delta and \Delta gives
:
\delta_1 (\bar) = - \delta_2 (\bar) = -\Delta \Big( \frac - \frac \Big)^ \ ,

from which one can obtain the element apex angles \alpha_1 and \alpha_2 from the mean refractive indices of the glasses chosen:
:
\begin
\alpha_1 &= \frac \Big( \frac - \frac \Big)^ \ , \\
\alpha_2 &= \frac \Big( \frac - \frac \Big)^ \ .
\end

Note that this formula is only accurate under the small angle approximation.
