Hi,
I'm doing my third year project on diffraction gratings and patterns and analysaing them via computer software and Fourier transforms. I'm going to design my diffraction gratings this week and then create them via taking a picture with a disposable camera and using the negative film. What diffraction gratings should i design which would produce interesting analysis?
Kind regards, Patrick.
