Nature Of Science:
Curiosity: Observed patterns of iridescence in animals, such as the shimmer of peacock feathers, led scientists to develop the theory of thin film interference.
Serendipity: The first laboratory production of thin films was accidental.

Theory Of Knowledge:
Most two-slit interference descriptions can be made without reference to the one-slit modulation effect.
To what level can scientists ignore parts of a model for simplicity and clarity?

Aims:
Aim 4: two scientific concepts (diffraction and interference) come together in this sub-topic, allowing students to analyseand synthesize a wider range of scientific information
![Page 16: Devil physics The baddest class on campus IB Physics ...sphsdevilphysics.weebly.com/uploads/5/0/7/1/5071691/_lsn_9-3_lecture.pdfgrating equation Describing ... not limited to): observing](https://reader030.vdocuments.us/reader030/viewer/2022040617/5f200ad147ce1521a5363dba/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)
Aims:
Aim 6: experiments could include (but are not limited to): observing the use of diffraction gratings in spectroscopes; analysis of thin soap films; sound wave and microwave interference pattern analysis
![Page 17: Devil physics The baddest class on campus IB Physics ...sphsdevilphysics.weebly.com/uploads/5/0/7/1/5071691/_lsn_9-3_lecture.pdfgrating equation Describing ... not limited to): observing](https://reader030.vdocuments.us/reader030/viewer/2022040617/5f200ad147ce1521a5363dba/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)
Aims:
Aim 9: the ray approach to the description of thin film interference is only an approximation. Students should recognize the limitations of such a visualization

Young’s Double-Slit Experiment
We know that when waves pass through an opening that is comparable to or smaller than the wavelength, the wave will diffract
![Page 20: Devil physics The baddest class on campus IB Physics ...sphsdevilphysics.weebly.com/uploads/5/0/7/1/5071691/_lsn_9-3_lecture.pdfgrating equation Describing ... not limited to): observing](https://reader030.vdocuments.us/reader030/viewer/2022040617/5f200ad147ce1521a5363dba/html5/thumbnails/20.jpg)
Young’s Double-Slit Experiment
If a single wave passes through two slits, it will form two diffracting wavefronts
![Page 21: Devil physics The baddest class on campus IB Physics ...sphsdevilphysics.weebly.com/uploads/5/0/7/1/5071691/_lsn_9-3_lecture.pdfgrating equation Describing ... not limited to): observing](https://reader030.vdocuments.us/reader030/viewer/2022040617/5f200ad147ce1521a5363dba/html5/thumbnails/21.jpg)
Huygens Interlude
Every point on a wave front can be considered as a source of tiny wavelets that spread out in the forward direction at the speed of the wave itself. The new wave front is the envelope of all the wavelets.

Huygens Interlude
This helps to explain why wavelength and speed decrease when changing mediums, but the wave stays intact

Young’s Double-Slit Experiment
The two diffracting waves will cross paths
At some points they will be in phase and constructive interference will occur
At others, destructive interference occurs
![Page 24: Devil physics The baddest class on campus IB Physics ...sphsdevilphysics.weebly.com/uploads/5/0/7/1/5071691/_lsn_9-3_lecture.pdfgrating equation Describing ... not limited to): observing](https://reader030.vdocuments.us/reader030/viewer/2022040617/5f200ad147ce1521a5363dba/html5/thumbnails/24.jpg)
Young’s Double-Slit Experiment
What shows up on the screen, is a series of bright and dark spots
While that is pretty cool by itself, as physicists, we want to know how to predict where the bright and dark spots will occur
![Page 25: Devil physics The baddest class on campus IB Physics ...sphsdevilphysics.weebly.com/uploads/5/0/7/1/5071691/_lsn_9-3_lecture.pdfgrating equation Describing ... not limited to): observing](https://reader030.vdocuments.us/reader030/viewer/2022040617/5f200ad147ce1521a5363dba/html5/thumbnails/25.jpg)
Young’s Double-Slit Experiment
In the middle of the screen, the two waves have travelled the same distance, so they are in phase when they meet so we get a bright spot
![Page 26: Devil physics The baddest class on campus IB Physics ...sphsdevilphysics.weebly.com/uploads/5/0/7/1/5071691/_lsn_9-3_lecture.pdfgrating equation Describing ... not limited to): observing](https://reader030.vdocuments.us/reader030/viewer/2022040617/5f200ad147ce1521a5363dba/html5/thumbnails/26.jpg)
Young’s Double-Slit Experiment
In this instance, the bottom wave travels farther than the top wave
However, the path difference is equal to one wavelength, so they are also in phase and we get a bright spot
![Page 27: Devil physics The baddest class on campus IB Physics ...sphsdevilphysics.weebly.com/uploads/5/0/7/1/5071691/_lsn_9-3_lecture.pdfgrating equation Describing ... not limited to): observing](https://reader030.vdocuments.us/reader030/viewer/2022040617/5f200ad147ce1521a5363dba/html5/thumbnails/27.jpg)
Young’s Double-Slit Experiment
In this instance, the path difference is ½ wavelength
The waves are out of phase, destructive interference occurs and we get a dark spot
![Page 28: Devil physics The baddest class on campus IB Physics ...sphsdevilphysics.weebly.com/uploads/5/0/7/1/5071691/_lsn_9-3_lecture.pdfgrating equation Describing ... not limited to): observing](https://reader030.vdocuments.us/reader030/viewer/2022040617/5f200ad147ce1521a5363dba/html5/thumbnails/28.jpg)
Young’s Double-Slit Experiment
Constructive Interference occurs when the path difference equals multiples of λ
Destructive Interference occurs when the path difference equals multiples plus ½ of λ

Young’s Double-Slit Experiment
So how do we determine path difference?
1. Even though the two waves meet at some distant point, the angle between them is so small that we can consider them parallel.
![Page 30: Devil physics The baddest class on campus IB Physics ...sphsdevilphysics.weebly.com/uploads/5/0/7/1/5071691/_lsn_9-3_lecture.pdfgrating equation Describing ... not limited to): observing](https://reader030.vdocuments.us/reader030/viewer/2022040617/5f200ad147ce1521a5363dba/html5/thumbnails/30.jpg)
Young’s Double-Slit Experiment
2. Draw a line perpendicular to the two ‘parallel’ waves to form a right triangle.
3. If you look at it long enough, you realize the diffraction angle θ, is the same angle as that at the apex of the right triangle.

Young’s Double-Slit Experiment
4. The distance between the two waves, d, is the same as the distance between the two slits. This distance forms the hypotenuse of the right triangle.
5. The path difference then becomes

Effect of Slit Width
The intensity pattern of multi-slit diffraction is modulated or ‘enveloped’ by the pattern for single-slit

Multiple-Slit Diffraction
As the number of slits increase,
Intensity for primary maxima remains the same but becomes narrower
Secondary maxima diminish

Thin Film Interference
Two key components:
Reflected waves are inverted
Path difference of refracted rays that are then reflected
![Page 50: Devil physics The baddest class on campus IB Physics ...sphsdevilphysics.weebly.com/uploads/5/0/7/1/5071691/_lsn_9-3_lecture.pdfgrating equation Describing ... not limited to): observing](https://reader030.vdocuments.us/reader030/viewer/2022040617/5f200ad147ce1521a5363dba/html5/thumbnails/50.jpg)
Thin Film Interference
Reflected waves are inverted
When a wave hits a surface with a higher refractive index part of its energy will be reflected off the surface
Just like a rope tied to a wall, the reflected wave will be inverted, a phase change of π

Thin Film Interference
Path difference of refracted rays that are then reflected
Part of the ray’s energy is refracted in the medium and then reflected off the bottom of the medium
The path difference also puts this wave out of phase

Thin Film Interference
d is the thickness of the film
If the angle of incidence, θ, is very small, we can take the path difference to be 2d(down and back up)
