Detail Page

written by the Kansas State Physics Education Research Group and Dean A. Zollman
This resource illustrates double slit interference patterns of 2D wave fronts.  The waves from two point sources are shown propagating outward, with interference fringes shown on a surface.  The wavelength of the waves can be changed, as can the source separation and relative phase.
