    This document summarizes a physics investigatory project on Young's double slit experiment and the effect of diffraction in interference. It includes a student profile, certificate of completion signed by the teacher, acknowledgements, introduction on the topics, the aim of the project, relevant theory, description of the apparatus used, procedure, observations made, calculations, results, sources of error, and bibliography. The student investigated how the interference pattern from a double slit experiment is affected by the diffraction of light passing through each individual slit. Measurements were taken of the fringe width of the interference bands both with and without accounting for the diffraction effect.

    Introduction
    |Young's Double Slit Experiment|

    Thomas Young, an English physician, first conducted the double slit experiment in
    1801. In this experiment light was passed through two slits and an interference
    pattern was observed on a screen placed a few metres away. In order to interfere
    the lights from the slits must be coherent. The wavelength and frequency is of the
    pattern as shown in fig.(i).

    |Single Slit Diffraction|

    Light is supposed to travel in a straight line. But like sound, when it approaches a
    barrier which of the same order as its wavelength, i.e., a few tenths of a millimetre
    it tends to bend around it. This can be seen by doing a slit experiment. When light
    is passed through a single slit a diffraction pattern can be observed. The
    wavelength and amplitude is of the pattern as shown in fig.(ii).
    |Diffraction in Interference|

    When a double slit experiment is actually done the interference pattern observed is
    actually different than the one shown in fig.(i). That is mainly because of the fact
    that light also diffracts individually from each slit thus forming a different
    interference pattern. The pattern formed in of the interference amplitude enveloped
    inside the diffraction amplitude as shown in fig.(iii).
    Aim
    To perform Young's double slit experiment and find the fringe-width of the
    interference bands.
