We present results of experiments obtained using a new nulling technique that enables deep nulling without the use of achromatic phase shifters. The experimental set-up consists of a three-beam interferometer that should provide a nulling depth of several thousands over a wavelength range of 500 to 650 nm. The intended depth of null was not achieved and further experiments on determining the spectrum of each beam revealed why. We describe a method of obtaining accurate beam spectra in a multi-beam interferometer. The insights on the need of spectral shape control were tested with our nulling theory and proved the sensitivity of this nulling approach with respect to spectral mismatches.
