HETERODYNING OF LIGHT

Abstract

An analysis is given of heterodyning of light, the mixing of 2 optical spectral lines whose difference frequency is in the microwave band of radio frequencies by using a photoelectric converter. A review is included of the paper by A. T. Forrester, R. A. Gudmundsen, and P. O. Johnson (Phys. Rev. 99:1691, 1955), which describes experiments in which the production of the interference of 2 incoherent light emissions was accomplished. The review offers an explanation of the experiments, and a description of the equipment used.
