Field and intensity correlations in random media

Mesoscale and Nanoscale Physics 2009-10-31 v2 Disordered Systems and Neural Networks

Abstract

Measurements of the microwave field transmitted through a random medium allows direct access to the field correlation function, whose complex square is the short range or C1 contribution to the intensity correlation function C. The frequency and spatial correlation function are compared to their Fourier pairs, the time of flight distribution and the specific intensity, respectively. The longer range contribution to intensity correlation is obtained directly by subtracting C1 from C and is in good agreement with theory.
