摘要: Abstract Path length difference is the key parameter in two-beam interferometer, especially low coherence interferometer. It determines visibility of interference fringes. In this study, we present a method to determine path between two arms fiber optic Mach–Zehnder interferometer by evaluating peaks power distribution spectrum with wide band light source. The experimental results are close agreement theoretical calculations.
