9. Two light waves are initially in-phase and have the same wavelength of 638 nm in air. They enter and then exit two equal length (L) parallel layers of glass with n₁ = 1.67 (layer 1) and n₂ = 1.61 (layer 2) as shown below. When the two waves exit the glass into the air, they have a phase difference of 3π/2 radians between them. Find the minimum length L for which this can occur. layer 1 layer 2 → L
