The Grating Challenge This page contains hints, solutions, and advanced challenges for our diffraction grating challenge. If you would like a grating (or a set for your class if you are a teacher), ...

For example, a series of thousands of scored lines in a glass plate diffracts light into a rainbow of colors. Lines of data pits on a CD give the same effect. See diffraction.

The effect of a diffraction grating is similar to that created by photonic crystal structures: the source for that gorgeous flash of iridescent color in peacock feathers, opals, and the wings of ...

We call this a diffraction grating and it makes a nice interference pattern. Let me see if I can make a sketch of waves passing through just two openings. Yes. This is just a sketch.

Instead, by 3D printing onto an existing diffraction grating, the print can pick up the texture on its base layer. It’s a great way to add iridescence and shine to a print.

A new diffraction grating is available! The new Gold coated diffraction grating is ideal for work from 20 to 80 nanometers. It joins the Gold coated 2400g/mm used at energies above 250 eV and the ...

A material that is capable of the “reverse diffraction” of light and that is inspired by butterfly wings has been made by researchers in the US. The structure combines features of the butterfly’s ...

Rotating the diffraction grating controls which wavelengths of light reach another mirror, which in turn focuses these wavelengths onto a photodetector, such as a charge-coupled device.
