All questions are about the same film with index of refraction 1.3 which is illuminated with colors red of the wavelength 650nm and blue of 390nm wavelength.

1. This film is positioned with upper surface contacting the air and lower surface contacting oil with index of refraction 1.22. What is the minimum thickness of this film which provide strong reflection in magenta color? (magenta color occurs if you are mixing red and blue)

2. What is the next after minimum thickness of this film which will provide strong magenta reflection?

3. In given conditions, if this film would be extremely thin (say, 5nm), how it would look in reflects light?

4. Now this film is being carefully taken from oil and placed on glass of index of refraction 1.5. What is the minimum thickness providing strong magenta reflection now?

5. What is the next thickness providing strong magenta reflection for the film sitting on the glass?

Please show all work. All parts of this question have the same film of index of refraction of 1.3, which is illuminated with colors of red and blue. a. The wavelength of red is 650nm, wavelength of blue is 390nm. The film is positioned with upper surface containing the air and lower surface contacting oil with index of refraction of 1.22. What is the minimum thickness of this film which will provide strong reflection in magenta color? (Magenta is when...

An anti-glaring uniform thin film of magnesium fluoride (MgF2, index of refraction 1.38) covers a crown glass case of refractive index 1.52. This film has a thickness such that it cancels normally incident light of wavelength 525 nm that strikes the film surface from air. The film is thicker than the minimum thickness to achieve this cancellation. Over time, the MgF2 film wears away at a rate of 2.10 nm per year. What is the minimum number of years before...

Engineers are testing a new thin-film coating whose index of refraction is less than that of glass. They deposit a 420-nm-thick layer on glass, then shine lasers on it. A red laser with a wavelength of 640 nm has no reflection at all, but a violet laser with a wavelength of 400 nm has a maximum reflection. How the coating behaves at other wavelengths is unknown. What is the coating's index of refraction?

A thin piece of glass with an index of refraction of n2 = 1.50 is placed on top of a medium that has an index of refraction n3 = 2.00, as shown in the figure. A beam of light traveling in air (n1 = 1.00) shines perpendicularly down on the glass. The beam contains light of only two colors, blue light with a certain wavelength and orange light with a certain wavelength. a) The blue light has a wavelength in...

1. Light traveling in air (index of refraction 1.00) falls onto a thin plastic film (index of refraction 1.30) of unknown thickness that covers glass (index of refraction 1.50). What minimum non-zero thickness is needed such that wavelengths of 650 nm in air are bright in the reflection? 2. You observe two point sources of light that are spaced 10 cm apart which are each emitting light of wavelength of 590 nm. If the diameter of your pupil is 2...

A transparent oil with index of refraction n = 1.24 spills on the surface of certain crystal (with unknown index of refraction) with a thickness of 0.423 μm. Normally incident red light (wavelength 700 nm in air) produces a maximum of reflection. (a) What can you tell about the index of diffraction of the crystal? (b) Which wavelength in the visible spectrum (400 nm - 700 nm) would also give constructive interference? And destructive? (c) Which index of refraction should...

A student shines a variable light source directly onto a thin film of oil that is on the surface of a piece of plastic. The oil has an index of refraction of 1.62 while the plastic has an index of refraction of 1.44. The student adjusts the light source until the first bright reflection occurs, which they note occurs when the wavelength is 560 nm. Q1. At which if any does the light undergo a 180 phase change on reflection?...

A uniform film of TiO2, 1036 nm thick and having index of refraction 2.62, is spread uniformly over the surface of crown glass of refractive index 1.52. Light of wavelength 545 nm falls at normal incidence onto the film from air. You want to increase the thickness of this film so that the reflected light cancels. (B)After you make the adjustment in part (a), what is the path difference between the light reflected off the top of the film and...

Blue light with a wavelength of 450 nm in air strikes a piece of glass with index of refraction n = 1.50. There is air on both sides of the glass. The following questions refer to this situation. 1). What must be the minimum thickness of the film in order for destructive interference to occur? a. 75 nm; b. 150 nm; c. 225 nm; d. None of the above. 2). Which one of the rays undergoes a phase jump? a....

A pool of water is covered with a film of oil which is 256 nm thick. For what wavelength of visible light (in air) will the reflected light constructively interfere? The index of refraction of the oil is 1.65. Visible light (in air) has wavelengths between 430 nm (blue) and 770 nm (red) in air. Assume that the incident light is normal to the surface of the oil.
