Introduction
In this lab, we observed interference, diffraction, and the polarization of light.
Interference is branched off into three different optical components: a single slit, a pair of slits
and a diffraction grafting. In the first part, we examined a diffraction grafting for different slits
that have equal spaces. In the second part, we then measure the width of our hair with the tool
given to us to see the diffraction. Our hair is defined as a single thin slit. The last part in the lab,
we observed the polarization of light for which is the examination of the oscillation directions.

Explanation of Part 1 Results
During part one, we examined two different LED color’s diffraction patterns. Blue and
red LEDs were both measured with diffraction graftings of 500 line/mm and 1000 line/mm. With
the 500 line/mm we saw the diffraction grafting image lines closer together than the 1000

Question Three
Two aluminium samples, A and B, are to be examined using Bragg reflection. For sample A the first-order
Bragg reflection from (111) planes occurs at an angle of 25°00', while for sample B the first order Bragg
reflection from (111) planes was at 25°20'. Aluminium atoms are 1.8 x 10-10 m diameter and form an
FCC structure. X-radiation of wavelength 1.52 x 10-10 m is used for the analysis of two samples of
aluminium.
Answer the following questions:
(i)
Calculate the lattice parameter of an aluminium atom.
(ii)
Calculate the interplanar distances for the two samples.
(ii)
Which sample shows pure aluminium, and what is the reason for the difference?
(iv)
Mention four uses of pure aluminium.

A diffraction experiment using Cu Ka radiation of wavelength X = 1.5406 Å showed peaks at
2012.319, 15.103°, 17.456°, 19.536°, 21.421°, and 24.784°.

Show that these data are consistent with a cubic unit cell, and calculate its unit cell parameter
a. Which cubic Bravais lattice (i.e., simple cubic, body-centred cubic, or face-centred cubic)
is most appropriate?
On the other hand, the related compound rubidium manganese selenide, RbMnSe2, has a
body-centred tetragonal structure with unit cell parameters a = 4.266 Å and c = 14.033 Å. Its
motif consists of a Rb atom at (0, 0, 0), a Mn atom at (½, 0, 1), and Se atoms at (½, 1, 0.15) and
(,,-0.15).

Using X-ray Diffraction
When an x-ray beam is scattered off the planes of a crystal, the scattered
beam creates an interference pattern. This phenomenon is called Bragg
scattering. For an observer to measure an interference maximum, two
conditions have to be satisfied:
1. The angle of incidence has to be equal to the angle of
reflection.
2. The difference in the beam's path from a source to an
observer for neighboring planes has to be equal to an integer
multiple of the wavelength; that is,
2d sin(0) = mx
for m = 1, 2, ....
The path difference 2d sin(0) can be determined from the diagram (
Figure 1). The second condition is known as the Bragg condition.
