3 /4/6 Model to Explain Young s Double Slit Ke Idea: Two coherent light beams interfere after following different paths light source Out of phase b 8 o (or π) Important historicall because it allowed an eas wa to measure the wavelength of light 5 Recent Histor of -Slits in Phsics In 967, two-source interference using TO separate lasers as light sources In 999, the double-slit experiment was demonstrated with Buckball molecules (comprised of 6 carbon atoms, diam=7 nm) In, the double-slit experiment with electrons as described b Richard Fenman was again carried out, this time using two slits of 6 nm wide 4 μm long In 3, the double-slit experiment was successfull performed with molecules that each comprised 8 atoms (whose total mass was over, atomic mass units) 6 3
