This paper reports the results of experiments performed in an effort to find a formulaic relationship between the interaural waveform coherence of a band of noise gamma(W) and the interaural envelope coherence of the noise band gamma(E). An interdependence described by gamma(E)=pi/4+(1-pi/4)(gamma(W))(2.1) is found. This relationship holds true both in a computer experiment and for binaural measurements made in two rooms using a KEMAR manikin. Room measurements are used to derive a measure of reliability for the formula. Ultimately, a user who knows the waveform coherence can predict the envelope coherence with a small degree of uncertainty.

We demonstrate a widely spaced, stabilized, and self-referenced opto-electronic oscillator driven electro-optic modulator based optical frequency comb. Using an ultra-stable Fabry-Perot etalon as a stable reference, we simultaneously stabilize a CW laser and generate a low noise and stable RF oscillation used to drive an electro-optic comb. In such a manner, the Fabry-Perot etalon pins both the carrier-envelope-offset frequency ( ) and the repetition rate of the comb in place ( ), eliminating the need for an external RF oscillator.

In the terahertz (THz) range, where wavelengths are 2 to 4 orders of magnitude longer than those in the visible spectrum, the coherent noise manifests primarily as parasitic interference fringes and edge diffraction, rather than speckle noise. In this work, to suppress the Fabry-Pérot (F-P) interference fringes, we propose a novel method, which involves the averaging over multiple diffraction patterns that are acquired at equal intervals within a sample's half-wavelength axial shift.

It operates in reflection geometry with on-axis illumination, so that it can be conveniently applied to surface texture measurements. The system consists of two identical 4f systems forming the reference and sample arm.

Traditional techniques like interferometry and holography often rely on phase stability and coherence, making them susceptible to noise and limiting their effectiveness in low-light conditions. We propose a time-of-flight (ToF) widefield microscopy technique that uses pseudo-thermal light.

To address this, we introduce digital holography (DH) for fringe image capture, enabling numerical refocusing of defocused object regions. Our experiments validate this approach and compare depth measurement noise with other DH and FPP methods.
