Do it Yourself Double Slit Experiment (Young’s) - Easy At-Home Science

Thomas Young’s Double Slit Experiment is a science staple for early physics lessons about waves. But did you know that you can recreate it at home with simple, everyday objects? In this Tech Lab, I show you how to use a laser pointer and create your very own apparatus for exploring double slit, single slit, and multi slit diffraction! *NOTE* - The quantum double slit experiment, where measuring the photons at the slit breaks down the interference into two pools of light cannot be done at home, and was fi
