Michelson Interfrometer
This demonstration uses the famous Michelson interferometer which is used either for precise distance measurements or the wavelength of the
Optical tunneling
Optical tunneling is demonstrated by frustrated total internal reflection.

Demonstrating diffraction of light
With a helium-neon laser, we can demonstrate the diffraction of light from a single slit, double slit pattern or from
X-rays as probes of atomic structure
X-rays are produced when inner shell transitions take place inside atoms. This demonstration uses
an X-ray tube, X-ray
detector and
