Method and apparatus for determining the wave number of optical spectrum radiation |
摘要 |
Method and apparatus for determining the wave number of optical spectrum radiation, particularly for use in controlling lasers. Two parts of a beam provided by a source to be monitored, particularly a laser, are directed to two double-wave interferometers. The differences of the optical path lengths delta of the interferometers are assigned a difference of lambda /4 which corresponds to a phase difference of pi /2. The two optical output signals emerging from the interferometers are converted into sinusoidal electrical waves in quadrature as a function of the wave number sigma = 1/ lambda of the laser and the period 1/ delta of the two sinusoidal electrical waves. The electrical waves are processed in suitable circuitry to obtain a modulo value 1/ delta of the wave number. These steps are repeated for different values of delta so as to progressively eliminate uncertainty in the value of the wave number.
