1
New cards
double slit requirements
2 coherent waves with same wavelength…fixed phase difference
2
New cards
double slit equation
wavelength=ax/D…where a is slit seperation, x is fringe seperation and D is distance
3
New cards
increasing a
wavelength increase, d increases, x decreases
4
New cards
maxima
bright spots of a diffraction grating
5
New cards
zeroth order maximum
central fringe
6
New cards
diffraction grating formula
dsinx=n*wavelength…d is seperation between grating lines and n is the order
7
New cards
calculating d
1/number of lines
8
New cards
dispersion
splitting of light into its component wavelengths
