Understanding Path Difference
• dsind is the path difference for waves traveling to a given point on the fringe pattern
• If path difference is an integer number of wavelength, interference is constructive
(bright fringe)• If path difference is a half integer number of
wavelengths, interference is destructive
(dark fringe)

What Will Happen to the Fringe Spacing…
• x = Lmd• …if the wavelength increases?
• …if the distance to the screen increases?
• …if the slit width increases?

Single Slit Interference
• Also called diffraction
• Fringes are larger
• Size of fringes decreases out from center of pattern

More On Single Slit Interference
• Pattern dominated by central maximum
• Called central diffraction maximum
• Width measured from minimum to minimum
• Twice as wide as other fringes
• Much brighter than other fringes
![Page 16: Wave Optics Interference and other Mysteries Explained Particle or wave?](https://reader036.vdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062304/56649f4f5503460f94c70761/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)
Single Slit Diffraction- Varying the Slit Width
• Fringes get bigger as slit gets smaller

Dispersion• Spreading of white light into spectrum of
wavelengths
![Page 20: Wave Optics Interference and other Mysteries Explained Particle or wave?](https://reader036.vdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062304/56649f4f5503460f94c70761/html5/thumbnails/20.jpg)
Why Dispersion Occurs
• Index of refraction, n, depends on wavelength
• Typically n decreases as increases
• Exit angle from prism depends on
White light
![Page 22: Wave Optics Interference and other Mysteries Explained Particle or wave?](https://reader036.vdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062304/56649f4f5503460f94c70761/html5/thumbnails/22.jpg)
Diffraction Gratings
• Diffraction Grating has thousands of lines per cm cut into glass plate
• Light from each slit interferes with light from all other slits
• Analysis like Double Slit• Sin = m/d principal maxima (bright)• Lines very close so maxima occur at large angles is maximum possible so only a few
maxima (“orders”)exist

How Grating Works in Practice
• Purpose is to analyze spectrum of light from source such as unknown gas or a star

Diffraction Grating Problem
• A grating contains 5000 lines per cm– Find the slit separation (d) in meters
• 500 nm light is incident on the grating.– At what angles will the first, second and third
orders be observed? Is there a fourth order?– Hint: use Sin = m/d
2 x 10-6 m
m=1 14.40 ; m=2 300 ; m=3 48.60 ; m=4 900 not visible
= 0.5x10-6m/2x10-6

Thin Film InterferenceLet film thickness = t
Assume no net phase change on reflection
2t = mm
Condition for bright
2t = (m+1/2)
Condition for dark
For one hard reflection 2t =mbecomes condition for dark

Complication #1Soft and Hard Reflections
• SOFT• beam exits higher n
material• No phase shift on
reflection
• HARD• beam enters higher n
material • Phase shift of /2 on
each reflection
Air n=1.0
Coating n=1.38
Glass n=1.52
![Page 31: Wave Optics Interference and other Mysteries Explained Particle or wave?](https://reader036.vdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062304/56649f4f5503460f94c70761/html5/thumbnails/31.jpg)
Complication #2What Wavelength to Use
• Use n = n where n is the index of refraction in the medium where refraction occurs (the film)
• Example: green 500nm light leaves air and enters a thin layer of oil n=1.25 floating on water. What wavelength should be used to find the minimum thickness of oil for the oil to appear green?
n = /1.25 = 500nm/1.25 = 400nm

What Really Happens
This shows why the wavelength must be divided by n in the film – to get the two reflected waves to interfere completely destructively

Problem• A coating of MgF on glass has an index of
refraction of 1.38. What is the minimum thickness of this coating to prevent reflection of 550 nm light?
2t =(m+1/2) n
For m = 0 t = n/4
t= t = 100nm

Puzzle
• If the two reflected beams interfere destructively, what happens to their energy?
It is transmitted! That’s the point of an antireflective coating.
