IEC Microwave Apparatus Complete Kit
Order code: SW2140-001IEC MICROWAVE APPARATUS
Optical experiments using microwaves instead of visible light are convenient and can give students a far better grasp of the principles involved. Blackout conditions or special light sources are not required. Microwave is ‘coherent transmission’ so it behaves as a safe low frequency ‘laser’.
Microwave frequency is approximately 5 x 10-4 of that of light and the angles of diffraction etc, are greatly magnified. Measurements may be made in degrees and centimetres instead of the very small angles and distances involved with visible light. Ordinary classroom metre rules can be used for measurements.
Microwave studies cover almost all the usual optical experiments and prove other types of phenomena such as radar, Doppler effect, Frensel lens, polarisation, electromagnetic radiation, standing waves, measurement of wavelength, thin film interference, velocity of light, Bragg refraction, Michelson's interferometer, single, double and multiple slit diffraction, interference patterns, modulation of radio waves and others.
IEC Microwave Apparatus provides a very useful ‘Optical Laboratory’ when combined with the HL2060-001 IEC ‘HODSON’ Light Box & Optical Set.
