Understanding Waveguides
This exercise, presented by the National Nanotechnology Infrastructure Network, covers the concept of waveguides. Students will explore the "angle of incidence, angle of refraction, and how light is transmitted through a waveguide for communication." Students have the option to do this lesson as either a guided or independent inquiry exercise. The lesson is divided into three parts: Refraction tank, Gelatin Waveguide, and Optical Fibers. Student and Teacher guides for each of the three parts are included.
