(a) Compute the far-field (Fraunhofer) diffraction pattern on a screen at location z due to a rectangular aperture of width b at z = 0. Assume the aperture is uniformly illuminated by a plane wave at normal incidence to the aperture. You may restrict your calculation to one dimension.

1a. For diffraction from a single slit, sketch the expected form of the diffraction pattern. 1b. In terms of the width of the slit, a, where would you expect to find the first minimum? As part of your answer consider points of the edge of the slit and in the middle of the slit, and the path difference between light waves originating at each point to a point on the screen that would result in destructive interference. Explain your answer.

1. A single slit produces a diffraction pattern on a distant screen. Show that the separation distance between the two minima on either side of the central maximum is twice as large as the separation distance between all the other neighbouring minima. Compare your result to the corresponding case for a double-slit pattern with very narrow slits. (Hint: use the formula for intensity of single slit diffraction) 2.Two ordinary lightbulbs S1 and S2 are 1m apart, each emitting light waves...

Find the wavelength of the light used to produce a double slit diffraction pattern where the second order image is 0.035 m from the central image using a diffraction grating constant of 5.2 x 10-5 m. The screen is located 2.0 m from the slits. Can you show this using the small angle approximation formula please?

A diffraction grating with spacing d = 2000 nm produces an interference pattern on a screen at a distance of 32 cm. If the first and second maxima produced are located at y = 3 cm, and 5 cm respectively, what is the wavelength of the light? Is this light visible? What does that say about the screen in this apparatus? If the frequency of the light used in question 1 above is decreased, will the positions of the maxima...
