1) Core Ideas and Definitions

φ = (2π/λ)x

I = I1 + I2 + 2√(I1I2) cosφ

2) Young’s Double-Slit Experiment

S2A = xd/D

x_m = mDλ/d

x_m = (m - 1/2)Dλ/d

β = Dλ/d

θ = λ/d

3) Intensity Relations and Visibility

Imax = I1 + I2 + 2√(I1I2) = (√I1 + √I2)^2 = K(a1 + a2)^2

Imin = I1 + I2 − 2√(I1I2) = (√I1 − √I2)^2 = K(a1 − a2)^2

I = 4I0 cos^2(φ/2)

Fringe visibility ratio = 2√n/(n+1)

4) White Light and Special Cases

Visible white-light range: 4000 Å to 7500 Å
