According to Rayleigh Criteria, resolution is determined by the wavelength of imaging light (λ) and numerical aperture (ΝΑ) of the projection lens. Thus resolution is given by the following equation.
R = k1 λ/ NA
Where k1 is the process parameter describing the difficulty of the process
The plural form of criterion is criteria.
Or best real-world respresentative of the ultimate criterion, which we develop to reflect or overlap with the ultimate criterion as much as possible.
Criterion is singular. The word criteria is actually the plural.
Criteria is plural. Criterion is singular. The criteria to pass a maths exam is being able to add up and subtract. The criterion of passing an addition exam is being able to add up.

Shorter wavelengths allow for greater detail to be resolved because they interact with smaller structures and features on the object being observed. As the wavelength decreases, the resolution increases because the diffraction limit is reduced, allowing for sharper images to be produced. This relationship is described by the Rayleigh criterion, which states that the resolution of an optical system is directly proportional to the wavelength of the light being used.
The ability of a lens system to distinguish two points is referred to as its resolution. This is determined by factors such as the wavelength of light used and the numerical aperture of the lens. Higher resolution allows for clearer images with finer details, enabling the lens system to differentiate between closely spaced points. In optical systems, resolution is often quantified using the Rayleigh criterion, which defines the minimum distance at which two point sources can be resolved.
The Rayleigh distance is the distance from a point source at which the light waves start to spread out and form a diffraction pattern. It is significant in wave optics because it helps determine the resolution and focus of optical systems, such as microscopes and telescopes.
The resolution of a telescope is the telescope's ability to determine if two points are seen as two points or one smudgy point. Resolution, or resolving power is measured as an angle below which differentiation cannot be made. The resolution of a telescope is a consequence of the wave nature of light. Because waves can add to each other, or cancel each other, in a process called diffraction, the aperature of the telescope must be as large as possible compared to the distance to the objects and the wavelength of the light to give the best performance. An equation which describes the resolution of a telescope is
The Rayleigh length is a measure of how well a laser beam can focus in an optical system. It determines the distance over which the beam remains relatively focused before it starts to diverge. This is important for determining the resolution and quality of imaging systems, such as microscopes and telescopes. A shorter Rayleigh length indicates better focusing ability and sharper images.
Resolving power = 0.5x wavelength/ numerical aperture (n sin theta)n sin theta in most microscope have value = 1.2 and 1.4therefore:R. P. = 0.5x500nm/ 1.25 = 200nm = 0.2 microns.(conv. 1000nm = 1micron).

That's really just a rule-of-thumb formula. The Wikipedia article on "angular resolution" explains how the number is derived; it involves the Bessel function. "1.220 is approximately the first zero of the Bessel function of the first kind, of order one (i.e., ), divided by π.". Whatever that means - you can read the article and follow the links ... which will probably require some advanced mathematics. "The formal Rayleigh criterion is close to the empirical resolution limit found earlier by the English astronomer W. R. Dawes".
