Interferometers that produce clearer signal by getting rid of light Photons arrive at random moments. Predict the moment, measure, and win.

Physics: Interferometer Gets More Quiet Mirrors Date: May 30, 2009 Source: Optical Society of America Summary: In physics many subtle phenomena can be studied by allowing waves to interfere with ...

A new multiple-mirror imaging technique could greatly improve the performance of atom interferometers, making them more useful in applications ranging from dark matter detection to quality control in ...

Not only was the LEGO interferometer able to generate a proper interference pattern, [Kyra] then went one step further. A Raspberry Pi was rigged up with a camera and some code to analyze the ...

Inertial sensors using atom interferometry have applications in geophysics, navigation- and space-based tests of fundamental physics. Here, the first operation of an atom accelerometer during ...

The plane mirror interferometer with active alignment has a high efficiency and thus the hyperspectral image cubes result in high-quality spectra and low noise, yielding superior performances than ...

White light interferometry (WLI) is a contact-free optical method for measuring surface height. It uses the phase difference between the light reflected off a reference mirror and the target sample… ...

This is done by placing a mirror between laser and interferometer which reflects the light and transmits further laser light. The light circulating in the interferometer is thus amplified.
