Abstract:
Neutron interferometry has proved to be a very precise technique for measuring the quantum mechanical phase of a neutron caused by a potential energy difference between two spatially separated neutron paths inside interferometer. The path length inside the interferometer can be many centimeters (and many centimeters apart) making it very practical to study a variety of samples, fields, potentials, and other macroscopic medium and quantum effects. The precision of neutron interferometry comes at a cost; neutron interferometers are very susceptible to environmental noise that is typically mitigated with large, active isolated enclosures. With recent advances in quantum information processing especially quantum error correction (QEC) codes we were able to demonstrate a neutron interferometer that is insensitive to vibrational noise. A facility at NIST’s Center for Neutron Research (NCNR) has just been commissioned with higher neutron flux than the NCNR’s older interferometer setup. This new facility is based on QEC neutron interferometer, thus improving the accessibility of neutron interferometry to the greater scientific community and expanding its applications to quantum computing, gravity, and material research.

Abstract:
The fields of millimeter and sub-millimeter interferometry have been developing for more than 30 years. At millimeter wavelengths the most important interferometers are the Combined Array for Research in Millimeter-Wave Astronomy (CARMA), the Plateau de Bure Interferometer (PdBI), and the Nobeyama Millimeter Array (NMA). At sub-millimeter wavelenghts, the most powerful interferometer is the SubMillimeter Array (SMA, for a detailed description, see Ho et al. 2004).

Abstract:
Laser interferometers are widely used to measure highly sensitive length and displacement, e.g., in which refractive index fluctuations of air adversely affect measurement accuracy. To compensate for these effects, the two-wavelength interferometer studied has not yet proved practical in industrial use. We studied the interferometer’s performance and practicality, using uncertainty analysis to extract its features. Based on our results, we developed a two-wavelengthMichelson interferometer with wavelengths of 1064 nm and 532 nm. It was calibrated and evaluated using a highprecision laser interferometer whose optical path was in a vacuum. Results confirmed measurement accuracy of 100 nm/50 mm (k=2) under unstable air conditions - superior to a traditional laser interferometer.

Abstract:
Long baseline optical/infrared interferometers, such as the Mark III Stellar Interferometer1 on Mt. Wilson and the ASEPS-0 Testbed Interferometer2 on Palomar Mountain, California, have good capabilities for narrow-angle and wide-angle astrometry with very high precision. Using the Mark III Interferometer many spectroscopic binaries became “visual” for the first time. The measurement accuracy of angular separation is 0.2 mas, the smallest separation measured between two components is 2 mas, the maximum magnitude difference is 4 mag, and the smallest semimajor axis is 4 mas. Such high angular resolution and dynamic range have been used to determine stellar masses with precision of 2% and differential stellar luminosities to better than 0.05 mag for separations of less than 0.″2. For some binary stars, not only have the systems been resolved, but also the diameter of the primary component has been determined, yielding direct measurements of stellar effective temperature with high accuracy. For parallax determination, the precision is 1 mas or better and is unaffected by interstellar extinction. For wide-angle astrometry with the Mark III interferometer, the observation results yielded average formal 1σ errors for FK5 stars of about 10 mas. Presently a new infrared interferometer, the ASEPS-0 Testbed Interferometer on Palomar Mountain is under construction, and is being optimized to perform high accuracy narrow-angle astrometry using long baseline observations at 2.2 μm, with phase referencing for increased sensitivity. The goal is to demonstrate differential astrometric accuracies of 0.06–0.1 mas3 in order to allow for detection of extra-solar planets in the near future.

Abstract:
Abstract. Accurate and flexible form measurements for aspherical and freeform surfaces are in high demand, and non-null-test interferometric methods such as tilted-wave interferometry have gained attention as a promising response to this need. Interferometric methods, however, display ambiguities between the measurement of certain form errors and the misalignment of the measured specimen. Therefore, improved knowledge of the absolute measurement position of the specimen in relation to the interferometer setup may improve the form measurement result. In this work, we propose a concept that uses a white light interferometer to measure the absolute distance between a transparent specimen's surface and the interferometer's objective and present preparatory data to qualify the white light interferometer for the improvement of tilted-wave interferometer measurements.

Full text
Abstract:
Nonlinear SU(1,1) interferometers are fruitful and promising tools for spectral engineering and precise measurements with phase sensitivity below the classical bound. Such interferometers have been successfully realized in bulk and fiber-based configurations. However, rapidly developing integrated technologies provide higher efficiencies, smaller footprints, and pave the way to quantum-enhanced on-chip interferometry. In this work, we theoretically realised an integrated architecture of the multimode SU(1,1) interferometer which can be applied to various integrated platforms. The presented interferometer includes a polarization converter between two photon sources and utilizes a continuous-wave (CW) pump. Based on the potassium titanyl phosphate (KTP) platform, we show that this configuration results in almost perfect destructive interference at the output and supersensitivity regions below the classical limit. In addition, we discuss the fundamental difference between single-mode and highly multimode SU(1,1) interferometers in the properties of phase sensitivity and its limits. Finally, we explore how to improve the phase sensitivity by filtering the output radiation and using different seeding states in different modes with various detection strategies.

Abstract:
Interferometry is one of the key diagnostics for fusion research. This diagnostic measures electron plasma density. Interferometers that work on an intermediate frequency are widespread nowadays. The phase shift between interferometer signals has to be measured. The use of a microwave interferometer on machines, such as a tokamak, leads to challenging requirements for the phasemeter operation. We present a method to provide real-time measurements of phase shifts with values much higher than 2[Formula: see text]. The phasemeter has been designed for the microwave interferometer of the T-15MD tokamak. It is based on microcircuits AD8302. Two signals with frequencies of 5 and 10 MHz are used as interferometer outputs. The phasemeter output will be used to create a feedback loop for the working gas injection into the tokamak chamber to control the plasma density. The phasemeter has been successfully tested. The typical phase error and non-linearity of the device are 1° and 5 × 10−4, respectively.

Abstract:
Various interferometers used for high-precision spectroscopic measurements are considered, and the choice of a holographic interferometer based on the spatial-spectral method of holographic interferometry is justified, with the help of which the movements of the phase center of a coherent light flux in a wide dynamic range are measured in real time and measurement information is recorded digitally. On the basis of mathematical relations proposed by the authors in previous publications and based on the results of experimental studies, the sensitivity of a holographic interferometer to spatial displacements of phase centers (focus points) of light streams – point light sources forming a holographic interferogram is numerically estimated. The dependence of the level of the normalized intensity of the luminous flux in the central region of the holographic interferogram on the movement of the actual point light source along the normal to the plane of the Fourier hologram is established. Based on the results of mathematical modeling, it is shown that the sensitivity of the holographic interferometer to the movements of a real point light source along the normal to the plane of the Fourier hologram depends on the parameters of the optical scheme of the holographic interferometer when exposing the hologram and during measurements. At the same time, the sensitivity of the holographic interferometer to the indicated displacements of a real point light source can only be evaluated experimentally. It is proposed to increase the sensitivity of the holographic interferometer by using a thin collecting lens in its optical scheme. For the first time, a mathematical relation was obtained and investigated for the gain coefficient of the light flux phase with a spherical wavefront, which makes it possible to numerically estimate the increase in sensitivity of a holographic interferometer implementing the spatial-spectral method of holographic interferometry with known parameters of a thin collecting lens in an optical scheme. It is shown that the sensitivity of a holographic interferometer to the movements of an imaginary point light source along the normal to the plane of the Fourier hologram is 2.86 times greater than its sensitivity to the same movements of a real point light source. It is established that the sensitivity of a holographic interferometer with a volumetric Fourier hologram and a thin collecting lens in its design can be increased by at least an order of magnitude compared to the sensitivity of known optical interferometers. The results of assessing the sensitivity of a holographic interferometer implementing the spatial-spectral method of holographic interferometry to the movements of point sources of real and imaginary light fluxes, as well as the obtained ratio for the gain of the light flux phase gain by a thin collecting lens will be useful for high-precision measurements of linear and angular displacements of objects, as well as for the construction of photonic device designs. Based on the results of the study, an experimental sample of an acousto-electric converter was developed and manufactured on the basis of a holographic interferometer, which has high sensitivity in wide dynamic and frequency ranges and is intended for use in acoustic location of unmanned aerial vehicles.

Abstract:
Abstract Interferometry is the commonly exploited technique for electron density measurements in magnetically confined fusion plasma experiments. Reliable electron density measurements are fundamental both for machine protection and for plasma physics understanding. In the last years, attention was drawn on the dispersion interferometer concept, because of its robustness and simplicity. Nevertheless, the heterodyne version of this configuration, which has several advantages over the homodyne scheme, loses one of the main benefits of the dispersion interferometer technique, that is its inherent insensitivity to vibration errors. In this paper, two methods are proposed and theoretically investigated to reduce the vibration noise in the electron density measurements performed with heterodyne dispersion interferometers.

Abstract:
A new instrument, the liquid crystal point diffraction interferometer (LCPDI), has been developed for the measurement of phase objects. This instrument maintains the compact, robust design of Linnik's point diffiaction interferometer (PDI) and adds to it phase stepping capability for quantitative interferogram analysis. The result is a compact, simple to align, environmentally insensitive interferometer capable of accurately measuring optical wavefronts with very high data density and with automated data reduction. This dissertation describes the theory of both the PDI and liquid crystal phase control. The design considerations for the LCPDI are presented, including manufacturing considerations. The operation and performance of the LCPDI are discussed, including sections regarding alignment, calibration, and amplitude modulation effects. The LCPDI is then demonstrated using two phase objects: a defocus difference wavefront, and a temperature distribution across a heated chamber filled with silicone oil. The measured results are compared to theoretical or independently measured results and show excellent agreement. A computer simulation of the LCPDI was performed to verify the source of observed periodic phase measurement error. The error stems from intensity variations caused by dye molecules rotating within the liquid crystal layer. Methods are discussed for reducing this error. Algorithms are presented which reduce this error; they are also useful for any phase-stepping interferometer that has unwanted intensity fluctuations, such as those caused by unregulated lasers. It is expected that this instrument will have application in the fluid sciences as a diagnostic tool, particularly in space based applications where autonomy, robustness, and compactness are desirable qualities. It should also be useful for the testing of optical elements, provided a master is available for comparison.

Abstract:
This dissertation studies, analyzes, and experimentally demonstrates the innovative use of interference phenomenon in the field of opto-electronic information processing and optical communications. A number of optical systems using interferometric techniques both in the optical and the electronic domains has been demonstrated in the filed of signal transmission and processing, optical metrology, defense, and physical sensors. Specifically it has been shown that the interference of waves in the form of holography can be exploited to realize a novel optical scanner called Code Multiplexed Optical Scanner (C-MOS). The C-MOS features large aperture, wide scan angles, 3-D beam control, no moving parts, and high beam scanning resolution. A C-MOS based free space optical transceiver for bi-directional communication has also been experimentally demonstrated. For high speed, large bandwidth, and high frequency operation, an optically implemented reconfigurable RF transversal filter design is presented that implements wide range of filtering algorithms. A number of techniques using heterodyne interferometry via acousto-optic device for optical path length measurements have been described. Finally, a whole new class of interferometric sensors for optical metrology and sensing applications is presented. A non-traditional interferometric output signal processing scheme has been developed. Applications include, for example, temperature sensors for harsh environments for a wide temperature range from room temperature to 1000 degree C.

Abstract:
The thesis deals with a design of a comparing interferometer. It concerns a setup of two interferometers, one of them is a Michelson and another a Fabry-Pérot type. This set-up is made to compare results of length measurements simultaneously performed by each of them. In the Theory, basic principles of Michelson and Fabry-Pérot interferometers are described. A special attention is paid to an innovative method of length measurement with tunable lasers and optical frequency comb. In the Practical Part, so-called Pilot Experimental Setup is described. It is a prototype that has been used to perform basic experiments on comparing of the two above mentioned methods. Based on experimental results and practical experience with the Pilot Experimental Setup, a Final Setup is designed. It comes in a form of a stand-alone instrument.

Full text
Abstract:
In phase shifting interferometry, the image acquisition electronics have largely been ignored, because the overall measurement accuracy has generally been limited by the quality of the reference wave. A recently developed interferometer, the phase shifting diffraction interferometer,[1] provides a high quality reference wave, which has been measured to be better than λ/8000 rms. With such a reference wave, the interferometer accuracy then becomes limited by systematic errors in the image acquisition electronics. This paper presents a variety of issues that arise when using image acquisition electronics of the sort commonly used in commercial interferometers. A basic fiber interferometer that isolates electronics issues is described, as are simple solutions to some of the errors.

Full text
Abstract:
The fringe characteristics in cross-grating interferometers, illuminated by a source at finite distance, are analyzed. From the measurements of the fringe visibilities and the fringe shifts on discrete planes, the spatial irradiance distribution of the illuminating source, which is separable in two orthogonal directions, can be synthesized. To recover a general 2-D source structure, a line-grating interferometer and the technique of computed tomography should be used. When the line structures of the two cross gratings are not parallel, the fringe pattern has lower contrast, which suggests that four-line gratings should be used to replace the second cross grating to have high contrast fringes. The possibility of forming cross-gratinglike patterns using either the combination of one cross grating and two line gratings or the combination of two line-grating interferometers is discussed. Finally, moire interferometry using a cross-grating interferometer (a line-grating interferometer when only two beams of light are used) is analyzed. Experimental results are given.

Abstract:
By inserting quantum entangled SU(1,1) interferometers into a Sagnac interferometers, we form a Sagnac-SU(1,1) interferometer for rotational sensing. We find the rotational signal comes from ``classical" and ``quantum" parts with the latter enhanced by quantum entanglement.

Abstract:
Fibre optic low-coherence interferometry is of great interest for industrial sensing applications In general, systems use a low-coherence source to illuminate two interferometers with matched optical path differences (OPD), greater than the source coherence length. Typically, the first interferometer is used as a sensor, for example micro-machined silicon resonant sensors [1], where a reference and modulated sensing signal are derived from the sensor head. Due to the large OPD the two signals can propagate together without interference. The second interferometer acts as a detector, where due to its matched OPD, the signals from the sensor head are brought back into coherence and interfere.

Abstract:
Recent progress in atom optics has culminated in several demonstrations of atom interferometers. These rely on the passage of atoms through mechanical or light gratings and may be roughly characterized as Mach–Zehnder interferometers. In this communication, we propose a scheme to realize a Fabry–Perot interferometer for atoms. The mirrors are realized by the field gradient resulting from the spatial mode structure in optical or microwave cavities. When ultra- cold atoms impinge on such cavities, they experience quantum mechanical reflection and transmission that result in the appearance of longitudinal modes for the atomic wave function. We present a model of such a Fabry–Perot interferometer for two-level atoms. We discuss the intra-cavity matter–wave mode structure as well as the transmittivity and reflectivity characteristics of the interferometer. The potential generation of macroscopic quantum waves using such a device, as well as its potential as a sensitive photon detector, will be addressed.

Abstract:
POINTS (Precision Optical INTerferometry in Space) is a proposed dual astrometric interferometer with a nominal measurement accuracy of 5 microarcseconds for pairs of stars approximately 90 degrees apart. Each interferometer measures the arc-second-scale offset of its optical axis from a target star, and a metrology system, described by Phillips and Reasenberg (in this Digest), measures the approximately 90 degree angle between the two interferometers. To achieve the nominal accuracy will require monitoring the positions of the critical optical elements to a few picometer (pm). Even with the most stable materials and active temperature control, the larger optical elements, especially the 25 cm primaries, will experience thermal distortions much larger than this limit. In one subsystem, required in both interferometers, a novel technique called full aperture metrology is used to measure the appropriate average optical path length and correct for any changes. Laser light is injected into the interferometer at the primary beamsplitter and follows the starlight paths, but in the reverse direction, illuminating the active area of each optical element back to the primary mirrors. Most of the metrology light is sent out toward the target stars, but shallow phase-contrast zone plates on the primaries focus a few percent of the metrology light to axial points near the specular foci of the mirrors. The two metrology beams are collimated by athermal lenses and interfere at an auxiliary beamsplitter. The phase of the interference measures the path length difference between the two arms of the interferometer and is used to drive a null servo.

Abstract:
Abstract Laser interferometry, commonly used in high-precision motion control systems, is rarely adopted in experimental vibration analysis because their installation and mounting are invasive to dynamical systems. However, new technology in high-precision manufacturing, such as vibration-assisted machining, has shown the meaningfulness of using laser interferometers implemented in motion control systems for vibration analysis, system identification, and feedback control. To this end, this study investigates the use of laser interferometry for vibration analysis through a piezoelectrically actuated cantilever beam. The complete dynamics of the cantilevered beam with a piezoelectric actuator and a laser interferometer is modeled through the Euler-Bernoulli beam theory. Through the method of separation of variables, the original continuous system is transformed into a discrete system represented in a state-space form. The response of the beam is analytically predicted, then compared with the numerical result from a multibody model constructed in Simscape. The frequency response at the retroreflector is obtained through the Laplace transformation of the state-space form. It is found that the first modal frequencies from analytical prediction precisely agree with their experimental counterpart.

Abstract:
The field of atom interferometry1 is interesting since the potential sensitivity of matter-wave interferometers far exceeds that of their light-wave antecedents.2 As was emphasized at the recent Solvay conference on quantum optics, there is at present no paradigm available for calculating the quantum noise limits to matter-wave interferometers.3 We show that the phase uncertainty is inversely proportional to the square root of the total number, rather than the mean number, of atoms in the interferometert.4 We find that a matter-wave interferometer used as a gyroscope can be expected to be more sensitive to rotation by some four orders of magnitude than present laser gyro devices.

Abstract:
A Sagnac interferometer, because of its fringe stability and ease of alignment, is a promising tool for pulsed mode interferometry. Unlike a Mach-Zehnder-type of pulsed interferometer, a Sagnac interferometer does not require active fringe stabilization. In this paper, nonlinear optical pulsed mode interferometry—an interferometer where one of the arms contains a nonlinear optical material—is considered. The optical source is a mode-locked pulsed picosecond Nd3+: YAG laser. Properties of this setup are analyzed. Experimental results, based on phase-conjugate nonlinear optics, are presented. Applications to picosecond optical switching are demonstrated.
