Double Slit Diffraction Pattern
Intensity:
``` I = I₀ - ( sin²(β)/β² ) ```
where:
- I is the intensity at a point on the screen - I₀ is the intensity at the center of the pattern - β = πd sinθ/λ - d is the distance between the slits - θ is the angle from the center of the pattern - λ is the wavelength of light
Single Slit Diffraction Pattern
Intensity:
``` I = I₀ - ( sin²(α)/α² ) ```
where:
- I is the intensity at a point on the screen - I₀ is the intensity at the center of the pattern - α = πw sinθ/λ - w is the width of the slit - θ is the angle from the center of the pattern - λ is the wavelength of light
