Multiple Slits
Diffraction Grating
A special corner of multi-slit-space: N ~ 104, a ~ , b ~
N ~ 104: Principle maxima are very narrow! Secondary maxima are very low!
a ~ : principle maxima are highly separated!(most don’t exist)
b ~ : central maximum is very large!
typical grating specs: 900 g/mm, 1 cm grating.
N = 9,000
a = 1.11 microns
b = 1.11 microns
= 0.633 microns!
Abbe Theory of Image Formation
grating
m = 0
m = +1
m = -1
diffraction plane
Resulting interference pattern is the image
focal plane
m = 0
m = +1
Image formation requires a lens large enough to capture the first order diffraction.
