Abstract

We have designed two types of interferometers without moving parts, one is of the Michelson type, the other of the lamellar grating type. For both, the incident wavefront is divided into 2ⁿ parts, and each part produces one signal point for an interferogram, which can be Fourier transformed to give the desired spectrum. The 2ⁿ parts operate like an array of interferometers and since all points of the interferogram are instantly available, real time resolved spectroscopy may be performed.
