To observe white-light interference, we sent the chirped pulse through the interferometer, placed a polarizer at 45 ∘ before the nonlinear crystal and directly detected the transmitted infrared ...

Today, I've decided that the measurement you all need to know about is interferometry. Why? Because interferometers are the fezzes (fezzes are cool) of the physics world. And now, a group of ...

To test their predictions, the team proposes building an astronomical interferometer—a highly ... in photon polarization based on direction of polarizer under gravitational fields, Scientific ...

At the heart of the instrument are two high-precision, tunable Fabry-Pérot interferometers (FPI ... which are additionally filtered with a polarizer. This procedure can be used, for example ...

[jrcgarry] hacked together this awesome interferometer which is able to measure displacements in the nanometer range. Commercial interferometers are used in research labs to measure tiny ...

Interferometers, devices that can modulate aspects of light, play the important role of modulating and switching light signals in fiber-optic communications networks and are frequently used for gas ...

In an interferometer, light waves travel by two different paths, directed from place to place by strategically places mirrors, and converge at a detector, where they produce a striped interference ...

Controlled magnetic gradients The atom chip used to create the magnet-based interferometer in the experiment. (Courtesy: Yair Margalit) An Israeli-led collaboration has used atom-chip technology to ...

Physicists have created a quantum interferometer on an atom chip. This device can be used to explore the fundamentals of quantum theory by studying the interference pattern between two beams of atoms.

These venues, separated by nearly 2,000 miles, possess the size and flatness sufficient to accommodate the 2.5-mile (4-kilometer) interferometer arms. Using laser beams, scientists have detected ...
