Interferometer – 1002651This 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
