Interference and Diffraction lab

This lab will be performed on-site in the Course lab (Roslagstullsbacken 33, the yellow house across the buss stop Ruddammen).

Each group will work in a separate room. During the lab, you have to ware masks and gloves (we will provide them). While working with the equipment, please approach it one by one and keep distance to each other and to the lab assistant.

Come well prepared! This will decrease the time that you need to spend on-site (we must minimize the risk of spreading the infection).

  • Read the lab instructions.
  • Review the corresponding textbook chapters, if needed.
  • Watch the introductory video (see below).
  • Answer the preparatory questions.

Examination of the lab:

You will be examined by our lab assistent at the end of lab session regarding your understanding of physical concepts involved in the lab. Your lab report, one report per group, will be checked at the end of lab session. If our lab assistent is satisfied with your understanding as well as the lab report, you get PASS for the lab. There is no need to submit the lab report in Canvas after the lab.

In rare cases, if you for some reason cannot finish the lab report during the lab session, you are given one week to finish the report and submit it via Canvas.

 

The lab video was prepared by Felix Vennberg, Ola Kenji Forslund and Richard Schatz.
