We reported the second- and third-order temporal interference of two non-degenerate pseudo-thermal sources in a nitrogen-vacancy center (NV-). The relationship between the indistinguishability of source and path alternatives is analyzed at low temperature. In this article, we demonstrate the switching between three-mode bunching and frequency beating effect controlled by the time offset and the frequency difference to realize optical demultiplexer. Our experimental results suggest the advanced technique achieves channel spacing and speed of the demultiplexer of about 96% and 17 ns, respectively. The proposed demultiplexer model will have potential applications in quantum computing and communication.
