High-accuracy long-distance measurements in air with a frequency comb laser

Not Accessible

Your library or personal account may give you access

Abstract

We experimentally demonstrate that a femtosecond frequency comb laser can be applied as a tool for long-distance measurement in air. Our method is based on the measurement of cross correlation between individual pulses in a Michelson interferometer. From the position of the correlation functions, distances of up to 50 m have been measured. We have compared this measurement to a counting laser interferometer, showing an agreement with the measured distance within 2μm (4×108 at 50 m).
