Cheap and Eye-Catching Demo of Young's Double Slit

 

A presentation from the 2016 Summer Meeting: Sacremento, California

Abstract

This extremely simply, hand-made device gives the teacher and the student a way to work through the problem and come to an understanding of the topic that goes beyond the equations and then makes the equations more sensible.
