The single slit, the curve-single slit, the parallel double slit, the non-parallel double slit, the curve-double slit, and the non-parallel-curve-double slit experiments show the PhotoWave phenomena. In this article, by utilize the PhotoWave concept, we interpret the mechanism of the production of the Hybrid pattern (i.e., the two interference patterns respectively embedded in two diffraction patterns) of the non-parallel-double slit experiment. Based on the interpretation, we propose the math description of the Hybrid pattern.

Young’s double slit experiments have been descripted by wave theories, i.e., before and after passing through a double slit, the light is waves. To test the wave description, we extend the double slit experiments to the comprehensive double slit experiments which are the classical double slit experiments with added either Shield, or Blocker, or Metal tube, or Combination of Shield and Blocker, or Photon-Chamber, or Lens. We propose both “Postulate on light: light is photons before and after passing through double slit” and “Postulate on lens: light behaves same before and after passing through lens”. Then, we show the novel phenomena of the comprehensive double slit experiments: (1) the light is photons, not waves, before and after passing through a double slit; (2) it is the photons that form both the non-interference patterns and interference patterns in the same experiment; (3) the non-interference patterns gradually evolve to the interference patterns in the same experiment. We refer to the novel phenomena as “PhotoWave phenomena” that are universal. The comprehensive double slit experiments provide the novel phenomena for developing theoretical model to study: (1) the nature of the light; (2) the wave theories of the light; (3) the quantum theory of the light. A complete explanation is demanded and should describe all the comprehensive double slit experiments consistently.
