Abstract

Diffraction and interference are basic phenomena of waves. They are treated in wave optics extensively, because experimental setups are easy to built, diffraction patterns are visible and because of their importance for further subjects at school and university (diffraction of X-rays, cristallography, Fourier-Transformation, . . . ). Unfortunately, in many cases the experiments are demonstration experiments with a few diffracting objects and not enough possibilities for the students to participate. Therefore we developed a very flexible Remotely Controlled Laboratory (RCL) about diffraction and interference—a real experiment, which can be performed over the internet. The user can choose from among 5 different wavelengths, about 150 diffracting objects and 3 different techniques of qualitative and quantitative measurement. In this contribution we describe the experimental setup, give an overview about experimental results and end with the added value of the experiment.
