Electroformed Two-Slit Interference

Laser light through precision double slits produces interference patterns that demonstrate the wave nature of light. Four slit configurations allow direct comparison of how slit width and spacing affect fringe …

Cornell Plate Double-Slit Interference

A laser illuminates double slits on a Cornell plate, producing an interference pattern on a distant screen. The Cornell plate has multiple slit configurations (varying separation, width, and number of …

Variable Double Slit

Demonstrates double-slit interference with variable slit separation using a laser and PASCO diffraction wheel. Students observe the inverse relationship between slit separation and fringe spacing, providing direct verification of.
