Figures & Tables
Fig. 1. Schematic of ADS interference. α is the width of an angular single slit, and ϕ is the angle between dynamic two single slits. q 1 , q 2 , and q 3 are three points on the mask and o q 3 is the angular bisector of ∠ q 1 o q 2 . P is a point on the far field (with q 1 P = q 2 P ), which is chosen to observe interferential intensity. θ represents an additional phase on one single slit.
Fig. 2. Sketch of the experimental setup. The inset shows the mask pattern loaded on the SLM.
Fig. 3. I − ϕ curves in polar coordinates when the additional phase θ is zero. The black dots are the experimental data and the green solid curves are fits of the data. M is the theoretical FTC and | M f | is the modulus of the FTC, which is obtained by fitting the experimental data to the fitting function.
