Abstract:
We find a transformation in the probability density of intensity for light transmitted through stacks of glass slides of increasing thickness from one-dimensional (1D) to quasi-1D statistics. We argue that this represent a crossover to universal first order intensity statistics beyond 1D associated with the appearance of phase singularities at intensity nulls in the speckle pattern.
