Abstract

Experimental observations of a study conducted to investigate spectral shifting and spectral switching that take place in Young's double-slit experiment with partially coherent light are reported. It is shown that for certain critical distances in the near zone of the double slit, the phenomenon of spectral switching is observed, while for other situations a spectral shift is observed. These results are consistent with a theoretical study by Pan and Lu (2001 IEEE J. Quantum Electron. 37 1377; 2002 J. Opt. A: Pure Appl. Opt. 4 349).
