Quasi-Linear Displacement Measurement with Laser Feedback Interferometry

open access: yes2019 Conference on Lasers and Electro-Optics Europe & European Quantum Electronics Conference (CLEO/Europe-EQEC), 2019
In laser feedback interferometry (LFI), a laser diode is shone onto a target and the reflection from that target is injected back into the laser cavity. It has been demonstrated that changes in the laser dynamics induced by the fed back light can be exploited to measure target displacement, absolute position, or velocity [1,2].

All-fiber laser feedback interferometry with 300  m transmission distance

Optics Letters, 2021
A novel, to the best of our knowledge, interferometry based on the laser feedback technique with long transmission distance is proposed. The system has the advantages of high sensitivity for uncooperative targets and a simple structure. Also, the quasi-common path orthogonally polarized light compensation method is designed to compensate for the drift ...

Polarization-sensitive laser feedback interferometry for specular reflection removal [PDF]

open access: yesApplied Optics, 2018
Specular reflection from the surface of targets or prepared specimens represents a significant problem in optical microscopy and related optical imaging techniques as usually the surface reflection does not contribute to the desired signal. Solutions exist for many of these imaging techniques; however, remedial techniques for imaging based on laser ...

Simultaneous measurement of refractive-index and thickness for optical materials by laser feedback interferometry

Review of Scientific Instruments, 2014
The refractive index measurement by ordinary interferometers cannot avoid the air disturbances in the optical path. A novel approach is presented in this paper based on the Nd:YAG microchip laser feedback interferometry (MLFI) with 1064 nm wavelength. For eliminating the air flow and electric-heating influence the heterodyne modulation and quasi-common

Imaging and vibrational analysis with laser-feedback interferometry

Optics Letters, 1993
We have constructed a scanning confocal laser-feedback microscope that determines surface profiles in the range of 5 nm to 3 μm with ~200-nm lateral discrimination. A direct comparison is made with scanning electron microscopy, and an image of a silicon resolution standard with 40-nm-high structures is shown.

Effect of the optical system on the Doppler spectrum in laser-feedback interferometry

Applied Optics, 2014
We present a comprehensive analysis of factors influencing the morphology of the Doppler spectrum obtained from a laser-feedback interferometer. We explore the effect of optical system parameters on three spectral characteristics: central Doppler frequency, broadening, and signal-to-noise ratio.
