  • Michelson Interferometer Whitepaper
    spectroscopy. As the Michelson is scanned, intensity output is Fourier transform of the input spectrum. Typically, a helium neon laser is used to track the changing path difference while a camera or single element detector records the intensity at the output of the Michelson. Compared to a grating based
  • Pixelated Phase-Mask Dynamic Interferometer
    interferometers typically have an element in the path of the reference wavefront that introduces three or more known phase steps or shifts. By detecting the intensity pattern with a detector at each of the phase shifts, the phase distribution of the object wavefront can be quantitatively calculated

Figure 2 shows the configuration for measuring both surfaces and the pixel-by-pixel thickness of a trans-. parent disk in a single measurement. The measurement process begins with adjusting light intensity
