An anti-glare coating is applied to minimize reflection of a certain wavelength from the glass of a camera lens. If light travels slower in the coating than it does in the lens' glass, what minimum number of wavelengths need to travel across one thickness of the coating?
Thank you
1. a. If a piece of glass (n = 1.5) is coated with a transparent plastic (n = 2.0), will there be aphase shift in either of the beams reflecting off the interfaces (air/plastic and plastic/glass)? Howcan you tell, without doing the experiment, whether or not there will be a phase shift in eitherbeam? Be specific about what rays are reflecting off what materials.
b. So what thickness or thicknesses give the maximum reflection? What thickness or thicknesses(hint: it’s thicknesses) give the minimum reflection? Assume that a light of wavelength 500. nmis used, and you may leave the answer in nm. Yes, this is a choice between equations 35.17 and35.18, but your answer to part a should be helpful in deciding which set.
One way to determine the index of refraction of a gas is to use an interferometer. As shown below, one of the beams of an interferometer passes through a glass container that has a length of L = 1.8 cm. Initially the glass container is a vacuum. When gas is slowly allowed into the container, a total of 6894 dark fringes move past the reference line. The laser has a wavelength of 635 nm (this is the wavelength when the light from the laser is moving through a vacuum).
A.) Determine how many wavelengths will fit into the glass container when it is a vacuum. Since the light passes through the container twice, you need to determine how many wavelengths will fit into a glass container that has a length of 2L.number of wavelengths (vacuum) =
B.) The number of dark fringes is the difference between the number of wavelengths that fit in the container (length of 2L) when it has gas and the number of wavelengths that fit in the container (length of 2L) when it is a vacuum. Use this knowledge to…
