Key Points

  • This report aims to compare optical interference outcomes between double slit and single slit experiments.
  • Conducted in an undergraduate laboratory setting.
  • Utilized continuous intensity measurements from a laser.
  • Implemented low-intensity photon-counting measurements via a photomultiplier tube.
  • Demonstrated strong qualitative coherence with theoretical interference models.
  • Confirmed internal coherence aligned with expected diffraction patterns.

Abstract

This lab technical report contain a comparative study of double slit and single slit optical interference experiment. The experiment is conducted in an undergraduate experimental laboratory and compares laser based continuous intensity measurements with low-intensity photon-counting measurements using a photomultiplier tube. The results show strong qualitative and internal coherence result from expected interference and diffraction models.
