  8. Interference Requirements • Need two (or more) waves • Must have same frequency • Must be coherent (i.e. waves must have definite phase relation) Physics 102: Lecture 20, Slide 8

  9. hmmm… I’m just far enough away that l2-l1=l/2, and I hear no sound at all! l1 l2 Interference for Sound … For example, a pair of speakers, driven in phase, producing a tone of a single f and l: But this won’t work for light--can’t get coherent pair of sources Physics 102: Lecture 20, Slide 9

  10. Two different paths Single source Interference possible here Interference for Light … • Can’t produce coherent light from separate sources. (f  1014 Hz) • Need two waves from single source taking two different paths • Two slits • Reflection (thin films) • Diffraction*

  11. ACT: Young’s Double Slit Light waves from a single source travel through 2 slits before meeting on a screen. The interference will be: • Constructive • Destructive • Depends on L d Single source of monochromatic light  L 2 slits-separated by d Screen a distance L from slits Physics 102: Lecture 20, Slide 11

  12. ACT: Young’s Double Slit Light waves from a single source travel through 2 slits before meeting on a screen. The interference will be: JAVA • Constructive • Destructive • Depends on L d The rays start in phase, and travel the same distance, so they will arrive in phase. Single source of monochromatic light  L 2 slits-separated by d Screen a distance L from slits Physics 102: Lecture 20, Slide 12

  13. ½ l shift Preflight 20.1 The experiment is modified so that one of the waves has its phase shifted by ½ l. Now, the interference will be: • Constructive • Destructive • Depends on L d Single source of monochromatic light  L 2 slits-separated by d Screen a distance L from slits Physics 102: Lecture 20, Slide 13

  14. ½ l shift Preflight 20.1 The experiment is modified so that one of the waves has its phase shifted by ½ l. Now, the interference will be: • Constructive • Destructive • Depends on L d The rays start out of phase, and travel the same distance, so they will arrive out of phase. Single source of monochromatic light  L 2 slits-separated by d Screen a distance L from slits Physics 102: Lecture 20, Slide 14

  15. At points where the difference in path length is the screen is dark. (destructive) 2 slits-separated by d Young’s Double Slit Concept At points where the difference in path length is 0, l,2l, …, the screen is bright. (constructive) d Single source of monochromatic light  L Screen a distance L from slits Physics 102: Lecture 20, Slide 15

  16. Young’s Double Slit Key Idea L Two rays travel almost exactly the same distance.(screen must be very far away: L >> d) Bottom ray travels a little further. Key for interference is this small extra distance. Physics 102: Lecture 20, Slide 16

  17. Young’s Double Slit Quantitative sin(θ)  tan(θ) = y/L d d Path length difference = d sin q Constructive interference Destructive interference (Where m = 0, 1, 2, …) Physics 102: Lecture 20, Slide 17

  18. Constructiveinterference Destructive interference where m = 0, or 1, or 2, ... Young’s Double Slit Quantitative d d Path length difference = d sin q Need l < d

  19. y Young’s Double Slit Quantitative L d A little geometry… sin(q)  tan(q) = y/L Constructive interference Destructive interference where m = 0, or 1, or 2, ... Physics 102: Lecture 20, Slide 19

  20. Preflight 20.3 L y d When this Young’s double slit experiment is placed under water. The separation y between minima and maxima 1) increases 2) same 3) decreases Physics 102: Lecture 20, Slide 20

  21. Preflight 20.3 L y d • When this Young’s double slit experiment is placed under water. The separation y between minima and maxima • increases 2) same 3) decreases • …wavelength is shorter under water. Physics 102: Lecture 20, Slide 21

  22. Preflight 20.2 In the Young’s double slit experiment, is it possible to see interference maxima when the distance between slits is smaller than the wavelength of light? 1) Yes 2) No Physics 102: Lecture 20, Slide 22

  23. Need: d sin q = ml => sin q = ml / d Not possible! Preflight 20.2 In the Young double slit experiment, is it possible to see interference maxima when the distance between slits is smaller than the wavelength of light? 1) Yes 2) No If l > d then l / d > 1 sosin q > 1 Physics 102: Lecture 20, Slide 23

  24. 1 2 Thin Film Interference n0=1.0 (air) n1 (thin film) t n2 Get two waves by reflection off of two different interfaces. Ray 2 travels approximately2t further than ray 1. Physics 102: Lecture 20, Slide 24

  25. Reflected wave Incident wave n1 n2 Reflection + Phase Shifts Upon reflection from a boundary between two transparent materials, the phase of the reflected light may change. • If n1 > n2 • If n1 < n2 Physics 102: Lecture 20, Slide 25

  26. Reflected wave Incident wave n1 n2 Reflection + Phase Shifts Upon reflection from a boundary between two transparent materials, the phase of the reflected light may change. • If n1 > n2 - no phase change upon reflection. • If n1 < n2 - phase change of 180º upon reflection. (equivalent to the wave shifting by l/2.) Physics 102: Lecture 20, Slide 26
