The N-slit interferometric equation describes the interference pattern produced by light waves passing through \( N \) parallel slits. When coherent light (like that from a laser) illuminates the slits, it produces a pattern of bright and dark fringes on a screen due to constructive and destructive interference of the light waves emanating from the slits.
