Real time moire interferometry using a Fabry-Perot cavity with a phase conjugate mirror.
نویسندگان
چکیده
We describe a self-referencing interferometer in which the wavefront and its complex conjugate are generated in a Fabry-Perot cavity having one phase conjugate mirror (PCM). The finite response time of the PCM allows one to display momentarily the moiré between old and new interferograms after a sudden change has affected the input wavefront. Results using an externally pumped BaTiO(3) crystal as a PCM are analyzed.

Interferometry and laser control with solid Fabry-Perot etalons.
The use and analysis of solid Fabry-Perot etalons for interferometry and laser control are discussed and supported with experimental data. Low angle scattering is found to be an important factor influencing finesse and peak transmission. Thermal tuning sensitivity and wedge-angle control with thermal gradients are analyzed and illustrated. Control of laser oscillations using a solid-state etalo...
متن کاملHigh-accuracy Fabry–Perot displacement interferometry using fiber lasers
We describe ongoing work in a Fabry–Perot interferometry system designed to measure displacements over a range of 50 mm with sub-pm uncertainty. The apparatus involves probing two nearby modes of the Fabry–Perot cavity with narrow-linewidth fiber telecom lasers and measuring both the mode spacing and the absolute mode frequencies relative to a third, frequency-stabilized, fiber laser. We explor...
متن کاملWaveguide grating mirror in a fully suspended 10 meter Fabry-Perot cavity.
We report on the first demonstration of a fully suspended 10 m Fabry-Perot cavity incorporating a waveguide grating as the coupling mirror. The cavity was kept on resonance by reading out the length fluctuations via the Pound-Drever-Hall method and employing feedback to the laser frequency. From the achieved finesse of 790 the grating reflectivity was determined to exceed 99.2% at the laser wav...

متن کاملThickness variation compensation in a Fabry–Perot modulator array using a self-tuned Fabry–Perot structure
A method is presented for compensating cavity thickness variations in conventional Fabry–Perot devices through the replacement of the input mirror with a holographic mirror, resulting in a self-tuned Fabry–Perot ~STFP! device. The technique is suitable for integrating large arrays of electro-optic Fabry–Perot modulators with silicon circuitry. Experimental results of a STFP modulator are presen...
