Mach Zehnder Interferometer By Eon Scientific

Interferometer is built by assembling the building blocks on a breadboard as per desired optical layout. Optics and laser head are held using kinematic mounts with two axis fine adjustment facility. Precision alignments for obtaining the interference fringes are done using kinematic mounts.

One of the simplest experiments using the interferometer is measurement of index of refraction of air with an airtight test cell placed in one of the optical arms of the interferometer. No other factor such as convective airflow, should be present, that can generate optical path differences. The flexibility in fringe localization is one of the important advantages of the mach zehnder interferometer over other interferometers. Although many Mach-Zehnder interferometers use a rectangular arrangement, parallelogram arrangements are also possible. Vibration isolated supports for optical table is optional.
