A plane wave (wavelength ) of intensity I0 is propagating in the z-direction. A large cardboard is placed on the x-y plane to block all the light in the lower-half plane y0. At a distance z away from the cardboard, we would observe the light distribution along y-direction to be like the left figure below. Use Fresnel diffraction formula and the Cornu Spiral provided below to find the location of P on the y-axis. (12%)
