Comparator with Photoelectric Detection for Setting on Broad Interference Fringes with Precision

Not Accessible

Your library or personal account may give you access

Abstract

A comparator with a photoelectric detection system is described. Experimental data are reported to demonstrate that the same setting precision of ±0.2 micron is associated with the measured position of a normally exposed two-beam interference fringe, an overexposed two-beam interference fringe, a multiple-beam interference fringe, and a spectral line. The corresponding setting precisions obtained by the usual visual techniques are ±6.2, ±3.0, ±1.1, and ±0.6 microns, respectively.
