Abstract :
The laser source of radiation is precision interferometric equipment for high-resolution comparison of laser wavelengths. The phase shift of the electromagnetic wave in the resonant cavity of an interferometer is the basic source of the dominant systematic error of this comparison. Thus precision determination of the phase shift error is a necessary condition for using the modern method of the definition of the unit of the length
