Interferometer

This complete equipment set comprises high-grade optical components mounted on a heavy, rigid base plate for precise and reproducible measurements. The large optical components permit a generation of clear and well-defined interference patterns in daylight. The reflective observation screen has an adjustable inclination. Pre-defined component positions allow quick rearrangement to ensure extremely rapid preparation for the various experiments.

Experiment topics:

• Michelson interferometer
• Fabry-Perot interferometer
• Determination of the refractive index of glass*
• Determination of the refractive index of air*
• Twyman-Green test for optical components (qualitative)*

*U10351 accessory set required
