  • Abstract
    The paper reports on the development of an optical heterodyne interferometer concept for the investigation of dimensional stability. The contactless, double sided optical scheme directly probes dimensional length changes of prismatic samples, whilst the balanced configuration provides common mode rejection of perturbations that act similarly on the measurement and the reference beam.
