2. Some other applications for RCFOs

2.1 Applications of white-light interferometry, optical coherence tomography (OCT)

It should be noted that the terms "white light interferometry", "optical coherence tomography (OCT)", "coherence multiplexing", or OLCR (Optical Low Coherence reflectometry), which are used by various authors, correspond in fact to the same technique ( [R 460] , § 2.8). Using a spectrally broad (low-coherence) source illuminating a two-wave interferometer (Michelson, Mach-Zehnder), interference bangs are created only when the lengths of the two optical paths (the "measurement" and "reference" arms) are matched, to within the coherence length (e.g. a few tens of micrometers). In monitoring applications, two interferometers...

Optical Fiber Sensor OFS: The OFS international conference, which has become the benchmark in the CFO and RCFO field, takes place every 18 months, cyclically in Europe, America and Asia. Readers can consult the proceedings of past conferences since OFS1 in 1983. The 2020 editions of OFS, JNQG ... were postponed for a year due to the COVID 19 pandemic in 1983:
