Item no.: P2221000
Principle
With the aid of two mirrors in a Michelson arrangement, light isbrought to interference. While moving one of the mirrors, the alterationin the interference pattern is observed and the modulation frequency is measured using the Doppler effect.
Tasks
- Construction of a Michelson interferometer using seperate components.
- Measurement of the Doppler effect via uniform displacement of one of the mirrors.
