Abstract

By solving Schrdinger equation exactly, we obtain the neutron wave function in the slit. With the Kirchhoff’s law, we obtain the neutron diffraction function. Finally, we obtain the mathematical relation between the relative diffraction intensity of neutron double-slit diffraction and the diffraction position. The calculation result is in accordance with the experimental data.

In this paper, we study the light double-slit diffraction experiment with quantum theory approach. Firstly, we calculate the light wave function in slits by quantum theory of photon. Secondly, we calculate the diffraction wave function with Kirchhoff's law. Thirdly, we give the diffraction intensity of light double-slit diffraction, which is proportional to the square of diffraction wave function. Finally, we compare calculation result of quantum theory and classical electromagnetic theory with the experimental data. We find the quantum calculate result is accordance with the experiment data, and the classical calculation result with certain deviation. So, the quantum theory is more accurately approach for studying light diffraction.
