Diffraction Grating Laser Lab-edited
This is a simulation of a typical laser diffraction lab set up. Examine the set up in the 3D window, it shows a laser, a diffraction grating, and a screen. Use the checkbox to place the grating in front of the laser, and look at the pattern of dots that appear on the screen. Use the sliders to change the distance from the grating to the screen, the number of lines per millimeter inn the diffraction grating, and the wavelength of the laser. Use the diagram of the screen in the top window to analyze the numerical positions of the dots on the screen using diffraction equations.
