Explain Youngs experiment or double-slit experiment

Young's experiment: double-slit experiment (T. Young; 1801): A well-known experiment that exhibits the wave nature of light (and certainly of other particles). The light is passed from a small source into an opaque screen with the two thin slits. The light is diffracted via such slits and expands an interference pattern on the other side of screen.
