Observations of Cross-Double-Slit Experiments

Hui Peng

Published Aug 27, 2020• 16 citations

Abstract

Young’s double-slit experiment had been performed over 200 years ago. Two- dimension cross-double-slit has been proposed recently. We report observations of two-dimension-cross-interference patterns created by two-dimension cross-double-slit apparatuses.

Double Slit Experiment Still Has Much to Offer (1) ---2D-Cross-Double Slit Experiments

Peng, Hui

Young's one-dimension-double-slit experiment represents the basic mystery of quantum world. Although it was performed over 200 years ago, the double slit experiment still has much to offer. To explore the mystery, in this article, the 1D-double slit experiments have been extended to 2D-cross-double slit experiments. It is a challenge to explain those experiments consistently.

Double Slit to Non-parallel Double Slit to Curved Double Slit

Hui Peng

Young’s double slit experiment was called as "a phenomenon […] has in it the heart of quantum mechanics. In reality, it contains the only mystery. We cannot make the mystery go away by ‘explaining’ how it works". To study the mystery, we perform the non-crossing-slit-experiments and crossing-slit experiments and show phenomena: (1) in the same double slit or cross double slit experiments, the non-interference patterns gradually evolve to the interference patterns; (2) in the same single slit or cross single slit experiments, the non-diffraction patterns gradually evolve to the diffraction patterns; (3) in the same two-non-parallel-slits experiment, the non-wave patterns gradually evolve to the hybrid pattern (i.e., interference-pattern-embedded-in-diffraction-pattern); (4) in the same curved-double slit experiments, the non-interference patterns evolve to Seashell-shape interference patterns. The above phenomena show new mysteries that are more mysterious than that of the double slit experiments: it is challenge to consistently explain how they work. Those novel phenomena indicate that the standard theories of the double slit are incomplete. Novel experiments bring the search for the new theory of physical/quantum optics.

WITHDRAWN: Novel Double Slit and Cross-Double Slit Experiments--- Interference Patterns Depending on Orientation of Diaphragm

Hui Peng

Abstract Young’s double slit experiments represent the mystery of quantum mechanics. To explore the mystery, in this article, we report experimental results that show novel phenomena that the interference patterns of the double slit and cross-double slit experiments depend on the orientation of the diaphragms. Those experiments provide comprehensive data for developing/testing a theoretical model.

Curved Interference Patterns---Novel Double Slit and Cross-double Slit Experiments (2)

Huei Peng

Abstract Young’s double slit experiments represent the mystery of quantum mechanics. To explore the mystery, varieties of the double slit and cross-double slit experiments were performed. In this article, we show novel phenomena that the interference patterns of the double slit/cross-double slit experiments can be curved. The curvatures depend on the orientation of the diaphragms of the double slit/cross-double slit. Those experiments provide comprehensive data for developing/testing a theoretical model.
