In-fiber reflection mode interferometer based on a long-period grating for external refractive-index measurement.
We present two novel schemes for refractometry based on a long-period fiber grating- (LPG-) based Michelson interferometer. These schemes are designed to overcome the measurement dependence of previously demonstrated LPG-based refractometry on the immersion depth. The first utilizes an unshielded LPG and the second, a shielded one. Both schemes were tested over a certain refractive-index range,...
متن کاملNew absolute distance measurement technique with a self-mixing interferometer
A new compact self-aligned noncontact range finder is described. It uses the selfmixing effect inside a laser diode. Double modulation technique is proposed to improve the measurement accuracy. Wavelength modulation (WM) of the laser beam is obtained by modulating the injection current of the laser diode. Phase modulation (PM) of the laser beam is obtained by an electro-optic crystal (EOC) in t...
متن کاملThickness measurement of transparent plates by a self-mixing interferometer.
We introduce a technique to measure transparent glass slab thickness. It employs a very simple setup combining two interferometers: a forward-going beam scheme and a self-mixing readout of the beam reflected back to the laser source. Interestingly, the difference of the two readouts provides a quantity related to thickness measurement, irrespective of refractive index. We demonstrate this metho...
متن کاملRefractive index sensor using microfiber-based Mach-Zehnder interferometer.
A simple and robust refractive index (RI) sensor based on a Mach-Zehnder interferometer has been demonstrated. A section of optical microfiber drawn from silica fiber is employed as the sensing arm. Because of the evanescent field, a slight change of the ambient RI will lead to the variation of the microfiber propagation constant, which will further change the optical length. In order to compen...
متن کاملA Method for Measurement of Nonlinearity of Laser Interferometer Based on Optical Frequency Tuning
A method for measuring the nonlinearity of laser interferometer using optical frequency tuning technique is presented in this paper. The basic principle of this method is to make the fractional part of an interference fringe change by tuning the laser frequency and determining the nonlinearity of interferometer by comparing the fractional fringe change measured by the interferometer to that cal...
