Abstract

For explaining the physics puzzle, we discover a new physics of self-beating without nonlinearity, together with plasma effects. While a portion of the light pulse transmits through the slit as a sub-pulse, the rest is reflected at the exit,propagates a round-trip, and then reaches the exit again. These linear processes repeat. The superposition of subpulseswith a phase delay in-between produces a periodiclight that beats its original light frequency. Analytical models proposed agree well with simulations.
