摘要: We address the following problem: Can two wave fields with different coherence properties produce same optical intensity everywhere in space? Limiting ourselves to paraxial propagation, we prove that one-dimensional case answer is negative. On other hand, two-dimensional show through examples affirmative. Some consequences are discussed.
