Photonics and Optoelectronics Set ZO5 for investigation of the optical, electrical and photonics phenomena
The set consists of following elements:
- laser diode module with stand which emits collimated light beam at 635 nm wavelength (red color)
- power pack with input voltage of 5 V used for supplying the laser module
- optical elements
- Lenses (3 pcs) each with a different focus: 2 convergent and 1 divergent
- Standard diffraction grating with a constant d = 2.0 μm +/- 0.1 μm
- Diffraction grating of unknown constant (destined for investigations)
- Glass Plates (3pcs)
- Polarizing foil (2 pcs)
- holders
- mechanical holder for diffraction grating, polarizers etc. with a stand
- mechanical holder for lenses with a stand
- detection set UD 1
- Photodiode with a stand
- Multimeter
- photovoltaic cell
- Ohm and Kirchhoff laws tester
The Set allows to carry out several optical experiments like:
- measurements of the parameters of the lenses
- polarization of light by absorption and verification of Malus law
- polarization of light by reflection and measurements of Brewster angle
- polarization of light by refraction
- optical activity of sugar solution
- single-slit diffraction and measurement of thickness of hair
- diffraction and interference by example of diffraction grating and evaluation of its parameter
- measurements of refractive index of the prism
- measurements of critical angle for air-glass boundary using a prism
- photovoltaic cell parameter tests
- Ohm and Kirchhoff laws tests
In order to help in experiments a special 40 pages handbook is included in which there is theoretical background for experiments as well.
