The seismic signals from volcanoes are complex waves that result from multiple single waves that occur simultaneously. To help students understand how a complex wave is formed, tell them that in this ...

Novel type of quantum interference enables single-molecule switch with high on/off ratio. Credit: Julia Greenwald and Suman Gunasekaran/Columbia Engineering A single-molecule switch that operates via ...

To the recording studio to study interference and diffraction of sound waves. Unit 6 Segment D: Sound: Diffraction and Interference We head back to the recording studio to study interference and ...

Perhaps one of the most famous experiments in physics has been giving us the wrong message all these years. For nearly two centuries, the double-slit experiment has been providing a direct visual ...

Optical interference is not only a fundamental phenomenon that has enabled new theories of light to be derived, but it has also been used in interferometry for the measurement of small displacements, ...

The basics of digital logic are pretty easy to master, and figuring out how the ones and zeroes flow through various kinds of gates is often an interesting exercise. Taking things down a level and ...

Several light sources produce light across various wavelengths. While this wavelength spectrum can be useful in lighting applications, other applications require light with a restricted visible ...
