Vision and Diffraction Take-Home Experiment
Printer-friendly versionUsing simple, readily available materials like markers and paper, students measure how close you come to having a minimum angle of resolution as predicted by Rayleigh’s criterion, based on diffraction of light through the pupil of your eye. Diffraction through a circular apperture and Rayleigh's criterion are key concepts for this experiment.
