Abstract

We utilized the theory in the preceding paper to determine the effect of 1- and 3-passes through a Fabry-Perot interferometer on the natural line shape of two different Lorentzian lines.

Line-shape studies for single- and triple-pass Fabry–Perot interferometer systems

Edward D. Palik, Hacène Boukari, Robert W. Gammon

To test the model developed in the preceding paper [Appl. Opt. 34, this issue (1994)] regarding the line shape produced by a Fabry-Perot interferometer system in a multipass mode, we have used three Lorentzian line shapes formed in scattering processes and subjected them to single and triple passes with some variation in the pinhole diameter. In most cases we find good agreement with the calculations with the only adjustable parameter being the single-pass contrast C(1). Where differences occur, plausible explanations are offered.

Measurement of Absorption-Line Profiles with a Fabry–Perot Interferometer*

Robert J. Hull, Lee C. Bradley

We have calculated the line profiles to be expected when a Fabry–Perot interferometer is used to measure absorption lines. We have shown that large errors may be introduced in the measurement of the integrated absorption, even when an interferometer of high finesse is used. Curves and tables are given for finding the true absorption width and the true peak absorption from the apparent values observed under different operating conditions of the emission light source and the interferometer. We show qualitatively that the distortions are partially due to the presence of nonzero wings in the instrument-bandpass function. Finally, we show a Fourier series expansion of the integral giving the transmittance of the Fabry-Perot interferometer when absorbing atoms are in the light path.
