- Speed of Light
(Maybe we can add a second mirror for two reflections of long leg of interferometer so that it will fit on small table in room 218.
)
- video - Interference and Diffraction
(Couldn't get this and other diffraction demos to show up well last time. Is there a way to orient to back wall or darken projection so that there is no light when "blanked"?

- Arago's (Poisson's) Spot

- Balloon
- Equilateral Prism
- Dielectric slab (one of the ones that one can hang between 2 metal plates to show how capacitance changes with dielectric inserted - I don't need the capacitor demo, just one of the slabs)

- Brewster's angle
(I would like to show the reflected and transmitted light on the wall/screen.)

- Large glass 45-45-90 prism, to reflect green laser beam by 90 deg. Can it sit on a horizontal plate attached to a post on the optical rail?
Also need piece of white foam board for showing frustrated total internal reflection of green laser using my two prisms.
- Light Pipe and Fiber Optics
(Just the large cylinder with laser.)
- Rainbow
- Brewster's angle
(Laser with glass plate to show reflected beam on wall.)

Large mirror (mine) to produce image on foam board.
- video - Ray Optics Kit
(I would like the version which can be used on the vertical board.)

- Green laser on rail (w/o telescope beam expander) with my small diverging lens and my 1 mm Fabry-Perot etalon and a piece of white foam board for viewing the transmitted light.

- Laser on rail with two mounts for diverging lens and my Fabry-Perot Etalon. (I have the etalon and diverging lens on posts and will bring them).

- Laser with variable width slit or circular aperture wheel mounted on rail, viewed on foam board near wall (or with camera if not easily visible on foam board)
- Razor Edge Diffraction

- Laser (with beam expander) with variable width slit and circular aperture wheel mounted on rail, to view near field diffraction on foam board near wall

- Laser (with beam expander) with variable width slit and circular aperture wheel mounted on rail, to view near field diffraction on foam board near wall
- Double Slit Interference of Microwaves
(I don't want to do Double Slit with this one, I want to use the zone plates (concentric circular aluminum rings placed between source) to demonstrate focusing of the microwaves when the proper Fresnel zones are blocked.
