Abstract
It is shown theoretically that the region of coherent interaction of i ntersecting broad-band optical beams can be greatly widened by tilting the coherence layers as a result of spectral dispersion with the aid of a prism or a diffraction grating. The theoretical predictions were confirmed by experiments in which interference fringes were observed f or broadband radiation, including the case when the interference invol ved ''white'' light.
