As we saw in the previous example, interference is a spectacular way of measuring small distances (like the thickness of a soap bubble), since we are able to resolve distances of the order of the wavelength of the light (for instance, for yellow light, we are talking about 0.5 of a millionth of a meter, 500nm). This has therefore technological applications.. Thought Question. Consider a single slit diffraction pattern. At the first dark fringe above the middle bright fringe, what is the phase difference between the contribution to the field from the topmost and bottommost edges of the slit?. One Photon at a Time.

Atoms send out a burst of light energy about every 10. -8 . s so the probability that the atoms in each source would emit their light waves in phase is nearly zero – the result is an interference pattern that changes in an irregular fashion and is impossible to see.
