Introduction to:\u00a0<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/h2>\n
    \n
  • Diffraction\u00a0<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/li>\n
  • Monochromatic light\u00a0<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n

    Material:<\/span><\/h2>\n
      \n
    • Laser pointer\u00a0\u00a0<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/li>\n
    • Laser safety goggles\u00a0<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/li>\n
    • Sharp Knife\u00a0<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/li>\n
    • Fastening material (clothespins \/ paper clips \/ adhesive tape)\u00a0<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/li>\n
    • Strong paper (e.g. construction paper, approx. 7 cm x 20 cm, approx. 130-200 g\/m\u00b2)\u00a0<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/li>\n
    • Ruler\u00a0\u00a0<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/li>\n
    • Support for laser (possibly height-adjustable)\u00a0<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/li>\n
    • Cutting surface (hard, stable)\u00a0<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/li>\n
    • Sheet of white paper\u00a0<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n

      Instructions:\u00a0\u00a0<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/h2>\n
        \n
      • Cut a straight slit in the construction paper with the help of the knife and ruler.\u00a0\u00a0<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/li>\n
      • The width of the gap should be about 0.1 mm.\u00a0<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/li>\n
      • Attach the paper to the ruler with the fastening material and place it at a distance of about 2 m from a wall.\u00a0<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/li>\n
      • Set up the laser in such a way that the laser beam hits the gap in the construction paper straight at a distance of about 15 cm.\u00a0<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/li>\n
      • Always use the safety goggles.\u00a0<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/li>\n
      • Attach the sheet of paper as a screen to the point where the light beam hits the wall.\u00a0<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/li>\n
      • Darken the room.<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n

        Observation:\u00a0<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/h2>\n
          \n
        • The light spot on the screen is not point-shaped, but elongated in the direction perpendicular to the slit.\u00a0<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n

          Explication:<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/h2>\n
            \n
          • The light is diffracted at the edges of the gap.\u00a0<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n

            Tips:<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/h2>\n
              \n
            • Move the laser beam back and forth slightly with the contact surface to set an optimal result.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n","protected":false},"featured_media":1821,"template":"","meta":[],"product_brand":[],"product_cat":[969,875],"product_tag":[],"class_list":{"0":"post-1820","1":"product","2":"type-product","3":"status-publish","4":"has-post-thumbnail","6":"product_cat-4-diffraction-interference","7":"product_cat-c-optics","8":"","9":"woocommerce-text-align-left","10":"woocommerce-image-align-center","12":"first","13":"instock","14":"shipping-taxable","15":"product-type-simple"},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/experiments.school\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/product\/1820","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/experiments.school\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/product"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/experiments.school\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/product"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/experiments.school\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/1821"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/experiments.school\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=1820"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"product_brand","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/experiments.school\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/product_brand?post=1820"},{"taxonomy":"product_cat","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/experiments.school\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/product_cat?post=1820"},{"taxonomy":"product_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/experiments.school\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/product_tag?post=1820"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
