Wavelength vs Tricoherence - What's the difference?

wavelength | tricoherence |

As nouns the difference between wavelength and tricoherence

is that wavelength is the length of a single cycle of a wave, as measured by the distance between one peak or trough of a wave and the next; it is often designated in physics as λ, and corresponds to the velocity of the wave divided by its frequency while tricoherence is the condition of four waves having the same wavelength and phase.
