Applications of photonic crystal fiber in high-resolution interferometry


In this talk I will present my research in supercontinuum light generation in photonic crystal fibers (PCF) and describe two applications of these fibers in high resolution interferometry. In one application PCF is utilized in a light source for high resolution stroboscopic white-light interferometry, the technique used for characterization of surface acoustic vibrations. Another application uses hollow-core PCF as a waveguide and gas cell for simultaneous measurement of the complex refractive index in gaseous analytes.
