Introduction
This experiment examines the far field diffraction pattern for a laser through a single slit. Intensity on the screen is measured with a digital camera and associated software. The inclusion of a scale on the screen makes error in position measurements trivially small. To reduce error in intensity, two pictures are analyzed; one with the iris of the camera nearly shut to get an accurate reading at the main peak and a second with the iris open to allow more accurate examination of the fringes.
