Suppose you are measuring double-slit interference patterns using an optics kit that contains the following options that you can mix and match: a red laser or a green laser, a slit width of 0.04 or 0.08 mm; a slit separation of 0.25 or 0.50 mm. Estimate the minimum distance L you can place a screen from the double slit that will give you an interference pattern on the screen that you can accurately measure using an ordinary 30 cm(12 in) ruler.

Diffraction of light

In physics, the term diffraction is defined as the bending of light around the corners of the obstacle. As a light ray passes by an aperture, it bends around the edges or through slits, it spreads out through a narrow opening. The diffracted light will produce fringes of bright and dark or colored bands which are labeled as a diffraction pattern.
