Understanding Waveguides: Light at the Nanoscale
13 Feb 2020 | | Contributor(s):: Marilyn Garza, NNCI Nano
There are three lessons for this activity that help students understand how light can travel through a waveguide for communication purposes. Students will first explore the angle of refraction. Next they will create a gelatin waveguide to explore issues associated with light and waveguides....
