Feynman (1956) called the double slit experiment "[…] it contains the only mystery. We cannot make the mystery go away by ‘explaining’ how it works". The photons are described by probability wave functions. The wave functions collapse to photons when measuring. However, the collapse of the wave function leads to the inconsistent/incomplete of the quantum mechanics (Penrose, 2022). In this article, we confirm that the apparatus of slits, e.g., the curve-double slit, does not change the nature of the light passing through it. We perform multi-experiments to show that, before and after passing through the apparatus of slits, the light is photons, not waves. And it is photons that produce the non-wave pattern and wave patterns in the same experiment. We refer to the phenomena as “PhotoWave Phenomena”. We experimentally show for the first-time novel phenomena that are new mysteries: (1) in the same curve-single slit experiment, the patterns are non-diffraction near the apparatus of slits and then, gradually evolve to the Hourglass-shape patterns; (2) Curved-double slit produces Arc-shape interference pattern near the apparatus of slits and Point-symmetry interference patterns near the detector; (3) non-parallel-curve-double slit produces Butterfly-shape interference patterns. We show the sensitive dependence of patterns on the structures of apparatus of slits: changes in the structure of the apparatus of slits result in profound differences in both pattern evolution and final pattern. We refer to it as “Optical-Butterfly-effect”. Slit Patterns Slit Patterns The above novel phenomena are universal. The PhotoWave phenomena support Penrose’s statement. To explain completely/consistently the PhotoWave phenomena and Optical-Butterfly-effect is a challenge. Advances in optical experiments demand a complete theory. The experiments provide the comprehensive phenomena for further developing theoretical model to study the nature of the light and the light wave theories.

Feynman (1956) called the double slit experiment “… contains the only mystery. We cannot make the mystery go away by ‘explaining’ how it works”. The photons are described by probability wave functions. The wave functions collapse to photons when landed on detector. However, the collapse of the wave function leads to the inconsistent/incomplete of the quantum mechanics (Penrose, 2022). In this article, we confirm that the diaphragm does not change the nature of the light passing through it. Then we perform multi experiments to show that, before and after passing through the diaphragm, the light is photons, not waves. It is photons that produce the interference pattern, we refer to it as “PhotoWave Phenomena”. We show for the first time the novel phenomena, new mysteries: (1) a same single produces the non-diffraction pattern near the diaphragm, which gradually evolves to the orthogonal diffraction patterns; (2) a curve-single slit produces the non-diffraction pattern near the diaphragm, which gradually evolves to Hourglass-shape patterns; (3) a double slit produces the non-interference patterns near the diaphragm, which gradually evolves to the orthogonal interference patterns; (4) a non-parallel-double-slits produces the non-wave patterns near the diaphragm, which gradually evolves to the hybrid patterns; (5) a curved-double slit produces Arc-interference pattern near the diaphragm and Point-symmetry interference patterns near/on the detector; (6) Non-parallel-curve-double slit produces Butterfly-shape interference patterns; (7) simple differences in the shapes of slits lead to the profound differences in the pattern evolutions and in the final patterns, we referred to which as “Optical-Butterfly phenomena”. We referred to above novel phenomena as PhotoWave phenomena. The PhotoWave phenomena support Penrose’s statement. To explain completely/consistently PhotoWave phenomena is a challenge. PhotoWave experiments provide the comprehensive phenomena for further developing theoretical model to study the nature of the light, the complementarity principle, and the light wave theories.

The single slit and double slit (where two slit are parallel) experiments are two profound experiments in Physical/quantum optics. In this article, we study the variety of the optical experiments, including cross single slit, curve-single slit, non-parallel double slit, curve-double slit, non-parallel curve-double slit experiments. The experiments show the following novel patterns. Hourglass-shape diffraction pattern of a Curve-single slit Ring-shape interference pattern with spot at center of a ring Hybrid pattern of a non-parallel double slit Arc-shape and point-symmetry interference patterns of a curve-double slit Butterfly-shape interference pattern of a non-parallel-curve-double slit The experiments show that it is photons that produce wave-like patterns, referred to it as PhotoWave phenomena. It is a challenge to interpret all PhotoWave experiments consistently and completely.
