Differential Interferometry

  • Chapter
Optical Measurements

Abstract

Optical methods have a tremendous range of applications in observation and examination of fluid dynamic and thermodynamic processes in transparent media. Interferometry represents a major part among a variety of techniques. It uses the interference of two wavefronts of light propagating to the recording plane via two different optical paths — passing through or passing by the test substance. Presupposition for interference is the optical coherence of the two conjugate wavefronts.
