Lecture

Interference of Light: Resolving Power of Diffraction Gratings

Description

This lecture discusses the interference of light using diffraction gratings, focusing on the resolving power to separate different wavelengths. Through exercises, the instructor demonstrates how to calculate the number of slits needed to separate two specific wavelengths based on the grating's characteristics.
