Interference Pattern Fitting for Slit Diffraction

Python class to analyze diffraction slit experimental data.

TODO:

• add peak/min detection for calculating observed wavelengths automatically
• add possible cutoff parameter: this is the far field diffraction limit after all
• add more customizable plotting options, title, colors etc

Output

After applying to the example file in this repository, we have the following outputs. Output plot: Output data:
