When two or more light waves interact with one another, they result in the formation of different interference patterns. British physicist Thomas Young first demonstrated and explained these ...

Researchers have discovered brand new interference patterns in twisted two-dimensional tungsten ditelluride lattices. These so-called moir patterns can be tuned to look like periodic spots or even ...

The film demonstrates the use of lasers to capture and reconstruct images through interference patterns, emphasizing the importance of a motionless environment during exposure.

Interference occurs when waves, such as light or matter waves, overlap and either amplify or cancel each other out, creating characteristic patterns.

Researchers at King Abdullah University of Science and Technology (KAUST) have provided a new mathematical approach to ...

A new version of the famous double-slit experiment showed that it's impossible to measure light as both a wave and a particle at the same time, thanks to quantum physics' uncertainty principle.

One of the simplest and most beautiful naturally occurring patterns can be observed when light is shined through a pair of slightly misaligned periodic structures. This phenomenon, known as the ...
