The laser beam is in the red wavelength region as expected and in no other
wavelength region. This verifies the monochromatic nature of LASER. The wave
length of the laser is found to be 645 nm, which is close to the actual value of 650
nm.
RESULT
The spectral lines of iron and brass were photographed and the prominent
emission wavelengths calculated using Hartmans constants.
