A glass of refractive index 1.5 is coated with a thin layer of thickness t and refractive index 1.8 . Light of wavelength `lambda` travelling in air is incident normally on the layer. It is partly reflected at the upper and the lower surfaces of the layer. It is partly reflected at the upper and the lower surfaces of the layer ant the two reflected rays interface . If `lambda = 648 nm`, obtain the least value of `t ("in" 10^(-8)m )` which the rays interface constructively.

The outer surface of a transparent glass slab of refractive index mu_(S)=1.5 is coated by a thin layer of transparent medium of refractive index mu_(C)=1.6 . Orange light of wavelength 6400Å falls normally on the coating. The reflected light at the upper surface and at the lower surface of teh coat interfere destructively. If thickness of the coat is 5Kxx10^(-8) m, calculate the minimum value of K.
