In this video, I go over one-dimensional single-slit Fraunhofer diffraction. I walk through the mathematics using the Fourier Transform to calculate the intensity at a screen a distance d away, as a function of the screen coordinates.
This is part of my graduate series on optoelectronics / photonics, and is based primarily on Coldren's book on Lasers as well as graduate-level coursework I have taken in the EECS department at UC Berkeley.
Hope you found this video helpful, please post in the comments below anything I can do to improve future videos, or suggestions you have for future videos.
