Abstract
We studied electron single-slit,double-slit and three-slit diffraction with a new quantum mechanics approach and obtained the following results.(1) For single-slit diffraction,the thickness of the single-slit can make a large impact on the diffraction intensity and pattern.(2) For double-slit diffraction,when the ratio of(a+d)/a=n(n=1,2,3,…),orders n,2n,3n,… are missing in diffraction pattern,when the ratio of(a+d)/a≠n(n=1,2,3,…),there isn't missing order in diffraction pattern.(3) For double-slit diffraction,it can be found that when the thickness of the double-slit increases,the diffraction intensity and pattern will be changed,and when the thickness of the double-slit increases,the missing order phenomena disappear.(4) For three-slit diffraction,when the thickness of the slit increases,the diffraction intensity and pattern will be changed,and there is one secondary maxima and two minima between the two principle maxima.
