Grating interferometry with a semiconductor light source

Not Accessible

Your library or personal account may give you access

Abstract

The properties of a fiber-optic-based grating interferometer with a laser diode as the light source are described. The influence of effects such as wavelength shift, line broadening, and mode hopping on the quality of an interference pattern is investigated both theoretically and experimentally. Introduction of carrier fringes in the interference pattern through the injection-current-induced modulation of a laser diode is shown. The requirements for temporal coherence properties of a light source in grating interferometry are given.
