Abstract
The fast Fourier transform, phase iteration, and the least-square fit are combined into an automated processing technique for the analysis of Young's fringe patterns. A Young's fringe pattern is first fast-Fourier-transform filtered to get an initial phase, phase iteration is carried out to improve the phase if necessary, and then the phase is least-square fitted to a phase plane. The magnitude and the direction of the displacement associated with the Young's pattern are determined from the phase plane.
