Interference Applications From CD’s to Holograms
Quick Review So far, we have learned about: Double slit interference Single Slit Interference Multiple slit Interference (Diffraction gratings) Thin film interference Now, lets put it all together!
CD’s and DVD’s: How do they work? CD’s and DVD’s are a very good example of Thin film interference and diffraction gratings in action. But how exactly do they work?
Holograms: 3-D out from 2-D So far, most of us have seen a hologram somewhere. However, how exactly do those images get generated?
EM Waves PresentationTuesday May 26th, 2009 Purpose: to introduce you to EM waves in general. Presentation: To present on a specific EM wave, and discuss careers, applications, and social impacts Choices are: Gamma rays, Microwaves, Visible light, X-rays, and Infrared
Careers and Social Impacts This part of your presentation encourages you to learn more about the real world applications of all the physics you have been learning about, and the impacts it has on our society as a whole. Lets consider an example to get you oriented
