Michelson Interferometer: sample testing Without sample: With sample: sample Ratio:
Michelson Interferometer: demonstration of a delayed response
Michelson Interferometer: sample testing Do we need short pulses? Can we test mirrors? We are measuring directly k(W) to all orders (except zero and one)
Michelson Interferometer: sample testing sample White light = random sequence of ultrashort pulses
