Chapter 28 Physical Optics: Interference and Diffraction

Units of Chapter 28 Superposition and Interference Young’s Two-Slit Experiment Interference in Reflected Waves Diffraction Resolution Diffraction Gratings

28-1 Superposition and Interference If two waves occupy the same space, their amplitudes add at each point. They may interfere either constructively or destructively.

28-1 Superposition and Interference Interference is only noticeable if the light sources are monochromatic (so all the light has the same wavelength) and coherent (different sources maintain the same phase relationship over space and time). If this is true, interference will be constructive where the two waves are in phase, and destructive where they are out of phase.

28-1 Superposition and Interference In this illustration, interference will be constructive where the path lengths differ by an integral number of wavelengths, and destructive where they differ by a half-odd integral number of wavelengths.

28-1 Superposition and Interference To summarize, the two path lengths l 1 and l 2 will interfere constructively or destructively according to the following:

28-2 Young’s Two-Slit Experiment In this experiment, the original light source need not be coherent; it becomes so after passing through the very narrow slits.

28-2 Young’s Two-Slit Experiment If light consists of particles, the final screen should show two thin stripes, one corresponding to each slit. However, if light is a wave, each slit serves as a new source of “wavelets,” as shown, and the final screen will show the effects of interference. This is called Huygens’s principle.

28-2 Young’s Two-Slit Experiment As the pattern on the screen shows, the light on the screen has alternating light and dark fringes, corresponding to constructive and destructive interference. The path difference is given by: Therefore, the condition for bright fringes (constructive interference) is:

28-2 Young’s Two-Slit Experiment The dark fringes are between the bright fringes; the condition for dark fringes is:

28-2 Young’s Two-Slit Experiment This diagram illustrates the numbering of the fringes.

28-3 Interference in Reflected Waves Reflected waves can interfere due to path length differences, but they can also interfere due to phase changes upon reflection.

28-3 Interference in Reflected Waves There is no phase change when light reflects from a region with a lower index of refraction. There is a half-wavelength phase change when light reflects from a region with a higher index of refraction, or from a solid surface. There is also no phase change in the refracted wave.

28-3 Interference in Reflected Waves Constructive interference: Destructive interference:

28-3 Interference in Reflected Waves Interference can also occur when light refracts and reflects from both surfaces of a thin film. This accounts for the colors we see in oil slicks and soap bubbles. Now, we have not only path differences and phase changes on reflection; we also must account for the change in wavelength as the light travels through the film.

28-3 Interference in Reflected Waves Wavelength of light in a medium of index of refraction n : Therefore, the condition for destructive interference, where t is the thickness of the film, is:

28-3 Interference in Reflected Waves The condition for constructive interference: The rainbow of colors we see is due to the different wavelengths of light.

28-3 Interference in Reflected Waves The phase changes upon reflection depend on the indices of refraction of the film and the surrounding media:

28-3 Interference in Reflected Waves CDs (compact disks) depend on interference for their functioning. The signal is encoded as tiny bumps in the surface, and the reflected laser beam varies in intensity depending on whether it is reflecting from a bump or not.

28-4 Diffraction A wave passing through a small opening will diffract, as shown. This means that, after the opening, there are waves traveling in directions other than the direction of the original wave.

28-4 Diffraction Diffraction is why we can hear sound even though we are not in a straight line from the source – sound waves will diffract around doors, corners, and other barriers. The amount of diffraction depends on the wavelength, which is why we can hear around corners but not see around them.

28-4 Diffraction To investigate the diffraction of light, we consider what happens when light passes through a very narrow slit. As the figure indicates, what we see on the screen is a single-slit diffraction pattern.

28-4 Diffraction This pattern is due to the difference in path length from different parts of the opening. The first dark fringe occurs when:

28-4 Diffraction The second dark fringe occurs when:

28-4 Diffraction In general, then, we have for the dark fringes in a single-slit interference pattern: The positive and negative values of m account for the symmetry of the pattern around the center. Diffraction fringes can be observed by holding your finger and thumb very close together (it helps not to be too farsighted!)

28-5 Resolution Diffraction through a small circular aperture results in a circular pattern of fringes. This limits our ability to distinguish one object from another when they are very close. The location of the first dark fringe determines the size of the central spot:

28-5 Resolution Rayleigh’s criterion relates the size of the central spot to the limit at which two objects can be distinguished: If the first dark fringe of one circular diffraction pattern passes through the center of a second diffraction pattern, the two sources responsible for the patterns will appear to be a single source. The size of the spot increases with wavelength, and decreases with the size of the aperture.

28-5 Resolution On the left, there appears to be a single source; on the right, two sources can be clearly resolved.

28-6 Diffraction Gratings A system with a large number of slits is called a diffraction grating. As the number of slits grows, the peaks become narrower and more intense. Here is the diffraction pattern for five slits:

28-6 Diffraction Gratings The positions of the peaks are different for different wavelengths of light. The condition for constructive interference in a diffraction grating:

28-6 Diffraction Gratings There are many ways to construct diffraction gratings. This acoustic-optic modulator diffracts light from acoustic wavefronts in the crystal. Turning the sound off eliminates the signal; changing the sound frequency modifies it.

28-6 Diffraction Gratings X-ray diffraction is used to determine crystal structure – the spacing between crystal planes is close enough to the wavelength of the X-rays to allow diffraction patterns to be seen. A grating spectroscope allows precise determination of wavelength:

28-6 Diffraction Gratings Diffraction can also be observed upon reflection from narrowly-spaced reflective grooves; the most familiar example is the recorded side of a CD. Some insect wings also display reflective diffraction, especially butterfly wings.

Summary of Chapter 28 When two waves are superposed, the result may be either constructive or destructive interference. Monochromatic light consists of a single frequency. Coherent light maintains a constant phase relationship. Young’s two-slit experiment shows light and dark interference fringes.

Summary of Chapter 28 Bright fringes: Dark fringes: Thin films can form colors in reflected light through the destructive interference of other colors.

Summary of Chapter 28 When a wave encounters an obstacle or opening, it changes direction. This is called diffraction. When monochromatic light passes through a narrow slit, a pattern of bright and dark fringes is produced. Dark fringes ( W is the width of the slit):

Summary of Chapter 28 Resolution is the ability to distinguish closely spaced objects. Diffraction limits resolution. Rayleigh’s criterion: if two objects are separated by less than the minimum angle, they cannot be distinguished: A diffraction grating is a large number of small slits. Principal maxima:
