physics.iitm.ac.inThe Michelson interferometer is a device that produces interference between two beams of light. A diagram of the apparatus is shown in Fig. 1. The basic operation of the interferometer is as follows. Light from a light source is split into two parts. One part of the light travels

www.physics.utoronto.caA beam splitter is nothing more than a plate of glass, which is made partially reflective: as such, the splitting occurs because part of the light is reflected off of the surface, ... the whole field of view filled with light. ... point of zero path difference is reached, and then shrinking again, as that point is passed.

www2.chemistry.msu.eduThe Michelson interferometer comprises a beam splitter, moving mirror, and fixed mirror. The light beam split into two by the beam splitter is reflected from the moving mirror and fixed mirror, before being recombined by the beam splitter. As the moving mirror makes reciprocating
