Lesson: The Properties of Laser Light Physics • Third Year of Secondary School

Students will be able to

• compare the superposition of a set of waves that may or may not be coherent to the frequency spectrum corresponding to that set of waves,
• diagrammatically compare frequency spectra in terms of spectral width,
• compare light beams in terms of their degree of collimation,
• compare light beams in terms of the degree to which they are scattered,
• compare light beams in terms of their attenuation with distance.
