Student Set Optics 2.0 – Wave Optics Extension

Explore Wave Optics Through Experiments on Polarization and Interference

Use: Student experiments in wave optics in one working group
Requirement: Extension for the Students Kit Optics 2.0 (Art. No. 47530)

With the Wave Optics Extension, you can expand the Student Set Optics 2.0, with fundamental experiments on wave optics. The set contains the additional materials required for three experiments and is designed for independent experimentation by one student group.

Students investigate polarization, polarization effects and interference using a transmission grating, allowing them to explore and deepen their understanding of key phenomena of wave optics through hands-on experiments. Suitable worksheets and station cards support structured use in physics lessons.

Practical for your physics collection: The storage tray of the Student Set Optics 2.0 is already prepared for the additional components. This allows the basic set and extension set to be stored together neatly and conveniently.

Two optical instruments with scales are visible in the picture, with a glass plate next to them. Below the instruments are three different foils marked with the number of lines per millimeter.

The item pictured is an experimental device with a circular scale for reading angles, used in educational settings. There's an opening in the center through which light or other materials can potentially be passed.
On a white background lie two microscope slides, one of which contains a transparent sample. The sample appears to be a mineral object prepared for microscopic observation.
