Electromagnetic interference Electromagnetic energy from different sources will interfere when sharing the same space

Electromagnetic interference Interference depends on the phase of each component Constructive interference

A Fabry Perot cavity creates multiple sources with different phase from a single source Incident radiation Transmitted radiation Reflecting surface

Interference due to a Fabry Perot cavity The inter-reflector spacing determines the phase of the transmitted energy For maximum constructive interference For maximum destructive interference
