equipment set for wave optics with laser

The Equipment Set for Wave Optics with Laser is designed for demonstrating fundamental phenomena in wave optics by means of practical experiments. A partially polarized diode laser, with adjustable mounting, provides the light source, while power is supplied from a plug-in power supply (included) or from batteries.

The components are magnetic and can be placed horizontally or vertically on the included metal board, according to the set-up required for the various experiments. All components are stored in a case with shaped foam inlay.

uses for the equipment set for wave optics with laser

• Refraction and interference at the surfaces of a glass block, panel with holes, square panel, grating with slits, cross grating
