Subsidiary Maxima

The frequency response of the laser interferometer is shown not to be limited by the Q-factor of the external resonator. However, at high fringing rates, the familiar Fabry–Perot fringes develop subsidiary maxima which make the fringe count liable to misinterpretation. This effect is minimized by using an external resonator with large losses. A passive technique employing an eighth-wave plate is described for determining the direction of change in the optical length directly from the fringe pattern.
