Interference Requirements
• Need two (or more) waves
• Must have same frequency• Must be coherent (i.e. waves must have definite
phase relation)
Physics 102: Lecture 20, Slide 7
Demo: Interference for Sound …For example, a pair of speakers, driven in phase, producing a tone of a single f and :
l1 l2
But this won’t work for light--can’t get coherent sources
hmmm… I’m just far enough away that l2-l1=/2, and I hear no sound at all!
Physics 102: Lecture 20, Slide 8
Interference for Light …
• Can’t produce coherent light from separate sources. (f 1014 Hz)
• Need two waves from single source taking two different paths– Two slits– Reflection (thin films)– Diffraction*

Young’s double slit/rays
Bright spots
Shadow
This is not what is actually seen!
Monochromatic light travels through 2 slits onto a screenWhat pattern emerges on the screen?

Young’s double slit/HuygensRecall Huygens’ principle: Every point on a wave front acts as a source of tiny wavelets that move forward.
Wave crests in phase = constructive interference
Bright and dark spots on screen!
Constructive = bright
Destructive = dark

Young’s double slit: Key idea
Key for interference is this small extra distance.
Consider two rays traveling at an angle :
θ
Bottom ray travels a little further (2 in this case)
Physics 102: Lecture 20, Slide 12
Young’s double slit: Quantitative
Constructive: dsin() = mDestructive: dsin() = (m+1/2)
Consider two rays traveling at an angle Assume screen is very far away (L>>d):
θ ≈≈

Path length difference = dsin()

Young’s double slit: Quantitative
Constructive: dsin() = mDestructive: dsin() = (m+1/2)

Preflight 20.2In the Young double slit experiment, is it possible to see interference maxima when the distance between slits is smaller than the wavelength of light?
1) Yes 2) No

Thin Film Interference

Get two waves by reflection off two different interfaces: interference!
Ray 2 travels approximately 2t further than ray 1.
Light is incident normal to a thin film
Note: angles exaggerated for clarity
Physics 102: Lecture 20, Slide 19
Reflection & Phase Shifts
n1
n2
Upon reflection from a boundary between two transparent materials, the phase of the reflected light may change.
• If n1 > n2 – no phase change upon reflection
• If n1 < n2 – 180º phase change upon reflection (shift by /2)

If |2 – 1| = ½ , 1 ½, 2 ½ …. (m + ½) destructive
If |2 – 1| = 0, 1, 2, 3 …. (m) constructive
