“…Experimental evidence of the property has been demonstrated by a number of groups. [35][36][37][38] Let us apply this result to the case of a thermal source. It is usually assumed that dif-ferent points of a thermal source are not correlated.…”

Polarized directional reflectivity and emissivity of a SiC one-dimensional grating are studied. Measurements and calculations are performed between 10 and 11.5 m where the real part of the permittivity of SiC is negative. Pronounced dips due to surface-phonon polariton excitations are observed in the reflectivity spectra in p polarization. Thermal emission displays peaks in the same directions and at the same particular frequencies. A comparison between theory and experiments shows a good agreement for both cases. The dispersion relation is obtained theoretically and experimentally. Finally, we discuss the spatial coherence of the monochromatic thermal emission. Indeed, it is shown that the existence of peaks of the emitted-monochromatic radiation, in particular angular directions, implies that, due to surface waves, the thermally excited field is partially spatially coherent along the interface. ͓S0163-1829͑97͒06915-4͔

“…In another technique the light is transmitted through a liquid crystal whose correlation properties can be modified by applying to it an electric dc field [ l l , 121, or passing it through a beam of ultrasonic waves (for example, [13,141) or using synthetic acousto-optic holograms [15, 161. Other methods make use of holographic filters [17], lensless feedback systems [18] or source filters [19]. Synthesis of partially coherent fields from initially incoherent and coherent sources was described in [20].…”

The phenomenon of correlation-induced spectral changes, discovered several years ago and extensively studied since then, is shown to offer the possibility of contructing novel types of spectral filter which have several properties that are not achievable with conventional filters. For example such filters can have different prescribed filtering properties in different directions of observation. In this paper the underlying theory is discussed and is illustrated by a few examples.
