    Abstract: A mode-monitoring system used in connection with discrete beam frequency tunable laser provides optical feedback that can be used for adjusting the laser or for other processing associated with the use of the laser. For example, the output of a frequency tunable source for a frequency-shifting interferometer can be monitored to support the acquisition or processing of more accurate interference data. A first interferometer for taking desired measurements of optical path length differences traveled by different portions of a measuring beam can be linked to a second interferometer for taking measurements of the measuring beam itself. The additional interference data can be interpreted in accordance with the invention to provide measures of beam frequency and intensity.

    Abstract: The tilted relationship between the reference and test mirrors (24,26) of a Fizeau interferometer is used to spatially separate the reflections (R,T) from the two surfaces. The separate beams (R, T) are filtered through a spatial polarization element (32) that provides different states of polarization to the beams. The beams (R,T) are subsequently recombined to form a substantially collinear beam that is processed using a spatial-phase-shift interferometer (44) that permits quantitative phase measurement in a single video frame. Alternatively, two beams (104,106) with orthogonal polarization are injected into the Fizeau cavity (20) at different angles, such that after reflection from the reference and test optics (24,26) they are substantially collinear. Unwanted reflections are blocked at the focal plane through the use of a circular aperture (112). Short coherence length light and a delay line (84) may be used to mitigate stray reflections, reduce measurement integration times, and implement temporal phase averaging.
