There is destructive interference for a single slit when Dsinθ=mλ, (for m=1,−1,2,−2,3,...) where D is the slit width, λ is the light's wavelength, θ is the angle relative to the original direction of the light, and m is the order of the minimum. Note that there is no m=0 minimum.

The amplitude of the phasor for each Huygens wavelet is ΔE0, the amplitude of the resultant phasor is E, and the phase difference between the wavelets from the first and the last sources is
