HL waves

Shows how we can use vectors to find the amplitude when adding waves. How the single slit intensity distribution can be modelled by adding wavelets represented by vectors. How the intensity distribution depends on slit width and separation. Uses rotating vectors to show how subsidiary maxima are formed. The blue and red dots plot the resultant amplitude. Change the refractive index and thickness of film and observe...
