Abstract

Due to the high requirements of optical experimental equipment for double slit interference experiment, it is difficult for the laboratory to obtain the theoretical results of the experiment. In this paper, MATLAB software is used to simulate the experimental phenomenon of Young's double slit interference, and the corresponding color interference pattern and light intensity curve can be obtained by inputting different monochromatic light experimental parameters. At the same time, the interference fringes of seven colors of visible light are simulated, and the simulation diagram of the influence of wavelength on the interference fringe spacing is obtained. Finally, the simulation of Young's double slit interference experiment phenomenon is realized, so as to facilitate the teaching and research of optical experiments such as double slit interference.
