Hello,
I am having a probably very easy question concerning the grating period on a diffraction grating (blazed grating) but I just wanted to check if my considerations are correct.
According to the grating equation, an increase in the spacing between the slits decreases the diffraction angle. So when I have a constant angle of incidence and observation angle at which I can see for example green light (1. order) and I would then increase the spacing, would I then observe light with a longer wavelength than the green light from the same observation angle?
Thanks in advance for your help!
Cheers
Chiara
