Figure 1 shows a single slit diffraction pattern. Note that the central maximum is larger than those on either side, and that the intensity decreases rapidly on either side.
4.2: Single-Slit Diffraction - Physics LibreTexts
Mar 26, 2025 · For example, if you place your middle and index fingers close together and look through the opening at a light bulb, you can see a rather clear diffraction pattern, consisting of …

Figure 1 shows a single slit diffraction pattern. Note that the central maximum is larger than those on either side, and that the intensity decreases rapidly on either side.
Diffraction patterns 1 - DoITPoMS
The observed diffraction pattern is composed of repeated "sinc-squared" functions. Their positions from the central spot are determined by s (the spacing between slits) and their relative …
SINGLE SLIT DIFFRACTION PATTERN OF LIGHT
Below the pattern is an intensity bar graph showing the intensity of the light in the diffraction pattern as a function of sin T. Most of the light is concentrated in the broad CENTRAL …
