ABSTRACT:
A stable scanning or non-scanning Fabry-Perot interferometer and a method for stabilising the interferometer. The interferometer is composed of two plane mirrors arranged parallel to one another with a preselected optical distance between the optical surfaces of the mirrors. The interferometer radiates an output light signal in response to a light input signal applied parallel to the optical axis of the interferometer. The interferometer is stabilised by providing an arrangement for passing a plurality of reference light beams through the interferometer, the reference light beams being inclined at a preselected angle to the optical axis of the interferometer.
