Knowledge in Newton rings experiment

Interference and diffraction of light

This PDFs consists of information about interference and diffraction prepared by our senior physics faculty.The language in this PDFs can be easily understood by the students.It contains detailed description about 1.interference 2.diffraction 3.newton rings experiment and also questions which are important and mostly given in semester end exam.

Radius of Curvature of Plano-convex lens by using Newton's Ring Experiment

Newton's rings is a phenomenon in which an interference pattern is created by the reflection of light between two surfaces—a spherical surface and an adjacent touching flat surface. It is named for Isaac Newton, who investigated the effect in his 1704 treatise Opticks.
