This project delves into the principles of interference, particularly focusing on how light waves interact with very thin films, like those seen in soap bubbles or oil slicks. The post is in ...

A study led by the University of Portsmouth has achieved unprecedented precision in detecting tiny shifts in light ...

One of the simplest and most beautiful naturally occurring patterns can be observed when light is shined through a pair of ...

Young's experiment showed interference of light. As only waves demonstrate interference, this confirmed that light was a wave motion not a stream of particles. Watch this video for a practical ...

This is the first time they have spoken on this in one voice. In 2020, ICAO issued a letter to all member states urging them to “strengthen CNS systems resilience and mitigate interference to GNSS.” ...

Because optical filters work by either reflecting or absorbing undesirable light, they are classified into absorption and ...

The high sensitivity is due primarily to destructive interference, in which light reflected from the upper surface/substrate interface is out of phase with light reflected from the upper surface ...

A new study has achieved unprecedented precision in detecting tiny shifts in light displacements at the nanoscale. This is relevant for example in the characterisation of birefringent materials and in ...
