Answer #1

Given that ;

Wave length ; λ = 2.50 μm or 2.50 *10 -6 m

Because 1 μm = 10 -6 m

Refractive index , n = 1.34

If path difference is equal wave length , then first order interference is occurred.

Assume that the thickness of the layer be t

Path difference = n x t

According to the above statement n x t = λ

∴ t = λ / n

      = ( 2.50 x 10 -6 m) / 1.34

      = 1.87 x 10 -6 m

      = 1.87 μm

    My question is related to Optics- Interference from thin films: If we wish to coat flat glass [ index of refraction (n)=1.50] with a transparent material (n =1.25) so that reflection of light at wavelength 600 nm is eliminated by interference.What minimum thickness can the coating have to do this?   I know that the waves will experience a phase change of pi rad or (0.5 wavelength) since the first medium has a small index of refraction. How does this connect...
