Measure the angle of minimum deviation for each of the following lines in the mercury spectrum. To?nd the angle of the prism a, illuminate the slit with a light source, rotate the table until the corresponding apex of prism faces the collimator. Lock the table wit LOCK B and rotate the prism table slowly, simultaneously moving the telescope to keep the s pectrum in view. Set the prism in the position of minimum deviation.

1. Make all necessary adjustments of the spectrometer as detailed in the attache
d appendix - Adjusting the Spectrometer. 2. Determine the refracting angle, a of the prism and use this value in subseque nt calculations. To ?nd the angle of the prism a, illuminate the slit with a light source, rotate th e table until the corresponding apex of the prism faces the collimator. Lock the table wit LOCK B, and rotate the telescope to ?nd the re?ected image of the slit in each face of the prism in tur n. The angle between these two telescope positions is twice the angle a. It is left to you to justify this relation and include the justi?cation in your lab notebook. Figure 4: Measuring the Prism Angle4/5 PHY 4264L Prism Spectrometer Optics Lab M anual 3. Now place the mercury lamp in front of the slit and put the prism on the spec trometer table, positioned as in Figure 1. Turn the telescope and the prism until the mercury li ne spectrum comes into view. Now set the prism in the position of minimum deviation. To do this, u nlock LOCK B and rotate the prism table slowly, simultaneously moving the telescope to keep the s pectrum in view. At a certain position of the prism the spectrum will stop moving and then start to move in the reverse direction. This is the position for minimum deviation. Locate this position accu rately, and lock the table. 4. By means of the ?ne adjustment screw of the telescope, ?nd the position and h ence the angle of deviation d for each of the lines. Determine the angles of minimum deviation for each of the following lines in the mercury spectrum. To measure the angle of minimum deviation: (a.) Attach the prism in place as shown in Figure ??. (b.) Place the light source a few centimeters behind the slit of the collimator. (It may be helpful to partially darken the room, but when using the prism this is often not necessary. ) (c.) With the prism, it is generally possible to see the refracted light with th e naked eye. Locate the general direction to which the light is refracted, then align the telescope and spectrometer table base so the slit image can be viewed through the telescope. (d.) While looking through the telescope, rotate the spectrometer table slightly back and forth. No- tice that the angle of refraction for the spectral line under observation change s. Rotate the spectrometer table until this angle is a minimum, then rotate the telescope to a lign the vertical cross-hair with the ?xed edge of the slit image. Use the ?ne adjust knobs to mak e these adjustments as precisely as possible, then measure the telescope angle using the vernier scale. (e.) Without changing the rotation of the spectrometer table, remove the prism a nd rotate the tele- scope to align the cross-hair with the ?xed edge of the undiffracted beam. Measu re the angle on the vernier scale. The difference between this angle and that recorded for the d iffracted spectral line in step 5, is the angle of minimum deviation. Notice that generally, since the determination of the angle of minimum deviation for each spectral line requires rotational adj ustments of the spectrometer table, the angle of the unde?ected beam must be remeasured for each line.

Plot a graph of d against the wavelength ?. The curve so obtained is called a calibration curve. 6. Determine the values of the index of refraction of the prism for each of the above lines by the minimum deviation formula. Plot n versus ? using this data. This plot is called a dispersion curve for the prism. 7. Do a least squares ?t of the data to the Cauchy formula n = A + B ?25/5 PHY 4264L Prism Spectrometer Optics Lab Manual and obtain the Cauchy constants, A and B . 8. Using the values of A and B determined from your ?t calculate the index of re fraction using the Cauchy formula and compare to your actual measured values. Are the values predic ted by the Cauchy formula within the estimated error of the measured values? 9.
