Description

No study of interferometry should overlook the historical importance of the Michelson interferometer. Yet in the laboratory, the Fabry-Perot and Twyman-Green interferometers can be more important tools: the first for high-resolution spectroscopy; the second for testing and producing optical components with aberrations that can be measured in fractions of a wavelength.

The PASCO Interferometer is a high-precision, movable-mirror interferometer that can be used to perform Michelson, Fabry-Perot, and Twyman-Green interferometry. The mirrors are attached with thumbscrews, so it’s easy to set up and change configurations.

The PASCO Interferometer can be ordered in a variety of systems. The Precision Interferometer can be operated in either the Michelson or Fabry-Perot modes. The Complete Interferometer Systems also contain components for the Twyman-Green mode and a vacuum pump for the refractive index of air experiment. The Systems Component List shows the contents of each system.
