We present a method to characterize the spatial coherence of soft X-ray radiation from a single diffraction pattern. The technique is based on scattering from non-redundant arrays (NRA) of slits and records the degree of spatial coherence at several relative separations from one to 15 microns, simultaneously. Using NRAs we measured the transverse coherence of the X-ray beam at the XUV X-ray beamline P04 of the PETRA III synchrotron storage ring as a function of different beam parameters. To verify the results obtained with the NRAs additional Youngs double pinhole experiments were conducted and show good agreement.

We describe an experimental technique to generate a quasi-monochromatic field with any arbitrary spatial coherence properties that can be described by the cross-spectral density function, $W(mathbf{r_1,r_2})$. This is done by using a dynamic binary a
mplitude grating generated by a digital micromirror device (DMD) to rapidly alternate between a set of coherent fields, creating an incoherent mix of modes that represent the coherent mode decomposition of the desired $W(mathbf{r_1,r_2})$. This method was then demonstrated experimentally by interfering two plane waves and then spatially varying the coherent between these two modes such that the interference fringe visibility was shown to vary spatially between the two beams in an arbitrary and prescribed way.
Speckle is maybe the most fundamental interference effect of light in disordered media, giving rise to fascinating physical phenomena and enabling applications in imaging, spectroscopy or cryptography, to name a few. While speckle formed outside a sa
mple is easily measured and analysed, true bulk speckle, as formed inside random media, is difficult to investigate directly due to the obvious issue of physical access. Furthermore, its proper theoretical description poses enormous challenges. Here we report on the first direct measurements of intensity correlations of light inside a disordered medium, using embedded DNA strings decorated with emitters separated by a controlled nanometric distance. Our method provides in situ access to fundamental properties of bulk speckles as their size and polarization degrees of freedom, both of which are found to deviate significantly from theoretical predictions. The deviations are explained, by comparison with rigorous numerical calculations, in terms of correlations among polarization components and non-universal near-field contributions at the nanoscale.
We present a novel theoretical approach for modeling the resonant properties of transmission through subwavelength apertures penetrating metal films. We show that cavity mode theory applies to an effective resonant cavity whose dimensions are determi
ned by the apertures geometry and the evanescent decay lengths of the associated diffracted waves. This method suggests a concrete physical mechanism for the enhanced transmission observed in periodic aperture arrays, namely it is the evanescently scattered light, localized in the near field of metal surface, which couples into the apertures. Furthermore, it analytically predicts the frequencies of peaks in enhanced transmission, the quality factor of the peaks, and explains their dependence on variation in the hole radius, periodicity, and the film thickness over a wide range of geometries. This model demonstrates strong correlation to simulation and existing results with a high degree of accuracy.
An analytical approach describing properties of focused partially coherent X-ray beams is presented. The method is based on the results of statistical optics and gives both the beam size and transverse coherence length at any distance behind an optic
al element. In particular, here we consider Gaussian Schell-model beams and thin optical elements. Limiting cases of incoherent and fully coherent illumination of the focusing element are discussed. The effect of the beam defining aperture, typically used in combination with focusing elements at synchrotron sources to improve transverse coherence, is also analyzed in detail. As an example the coherence properties in the focal region of compound refractive lenses at the PETRA III synchrotron source are analyzed.
We extend the wide-sense spatial stationarity concept of coherence holography in the regime of phase-space using the wigner distribution function. We focus mainly on the incoherent light source and the Fourier and Fresnel propagation kernels for the
optical-field transformation rule (inputoutput relation) and derive the same analogy in WDF. We further show that in phase-space the WDF obtained from the ensemble-averaged and space-averaged coherence functions are the same. Finally, we interpret behaviour of these results through numerical simulations.
