Second order interference of chaotic light reflected from random medium

arXiv:1412.3440 · doi:10.1103/PhysRevA.102.023510

Abstract

We consider the reflection from a random medium of light with short coherence length. We found that the second order correlation function of light can have a peak in a direction where the reflection angle is equal to angle of incidence. This occurs when the size of the region, from which light is collected, is larger than the coherence length.
