Physics : Diffraction by CD

Comparison of the wavelengths of green and red laser beams by diffraction from a Compact Disc.

The CD used is a regular stamped music CD. The specifications for the grating-like surface of the metal layer of the CD is 500nm track width and 1600nm track pitch.

Red Laser (650nm)

.

Green Laser (532nm)

I will be posting photos and videos of physics experiments that I have constructed and performed. Feedback welcome, and I'd be glad to help out if you wish to replicate it!

Hello World!

Welcome to my humble blog!
This is intended to be a repository of Physics experiments and questions that I would collect over the years. Please feel free email any O-levels or A-levels Physics questions to me. I would try my best to answer them and post the question and answers in my blog within 48hours.
