Recall
Young’s double slit Interference Where are the fringes located?
Double slit demo What is the slit spacing?
Diffracted intensity
Newton’s Rings
Thin Film interference Soap film interference Where does the interference come from?
Anti-Reflection coatings First we want R 1 =R 2 D=(2m+1)n 2 /2
Thin film transmission
Fabry-Perot interferometer r=0.25 r=0.5 r=0.75 r=0.95
Coefficient of Finesse Airy Function
Finesse 22 1/2
Free Spectral Range
