The pattern of light and dark obtained when two beams of light combine or interfere with each other. If two waves of the same wavelength and amplitude have the same phase (i.e. their crests and troughs are in step), then the crests will enhance each other to produce a bright fringe light. If they are exactly out of phase, then the crests of one wave and the troughs of the other will cancel each o...
