4. Light behaves as a wave Assume monochromatic and coherent light

5. Light diffracts when traversing apertures like the water waves depicted below

15. Huygen’s principle Each point on a wavefront acts like a source for an outgoing (half) spherical wave front, producing the new wavefront.

16. Ideal double slit pattern

20. Multiple slit pattern – Diffraction grating

22. Single slit diffraction pattern

28. Two separated objects, light goes through an aperture (or lens, or mirror, etc.). Can one resolve the two objects? If the zeroth order diffraction pattern maximum from object two is at the first minimum from the diffraction pattern produced by object one, then they are resolvable: Resolution limit -- Rayleigh’s criteria

29. For circular aperture, slightly different:

30. Real double slit diffraction pattern We could integrate across both slits to find total E-field. Answer is that the single slit intensity is modulated by the double slit pattern (for slit opening a<d, the slit spacing)

36. Rough estimate!

37. Last Time: Review of traveling wave interference Phase changes due to: Optical path length differences sources out of phase General solution

38. Last Time: Single slit diffraction – E-field integration across entire slit to point a screen (path length differences cause interference pattern) Short cut to find destructive interference pattern (divide slit up into ‘2m’ and consider pairs of rays summed up over entire slit) Rayleigh’s criteria (optical resolution limit) – minimum of diffraction pattern produced by object 1

39. Last Time: Ideal double slit interference pattern (a~wavelength  2 point sources) Diffraction grating – constructive interference condition Actual double slit interference pattern (a wavelength) – Convolution of ideal double slit and single slit patterns

40. Last Time: Actual double slit interference pattern (a wavelength) – Convolution of ideal double slit and single slit patterns

41. Interference in parallel dielectrics Speed of light is effectively slower than ‘c’ inside media (like dielectrics). Define n, index of refraction: n=c/v Speed of light is ALWAYS c, but when you consider all the atoms absorbing and re-emitting EM radiation, and you look at the initial plane wave plus the sum of all the emitting atoms in the media, the wavefront is effectively compressed so that the new wavelength    /n where  is the wavelength in vacuum. Since  f = v  (  /n) f = v  v<c
