L. Angel et al., PHASE-STEPPING TECHNIQUE WITH AN ELECTROOPTIC CRYSTAL IN DIGITAL SPECKLE PATTERN INTERFEROMETRY, Optics communications, 149(4-6), 1998, pp. 235-238
The use of an electro-optic crystal as phase-stepping device in a digi
tal speckle interferometer is discussed. Phase stepping is introduced
by varying the external voltage applied to the crystal. The crystal ca
libration procedure is outlined and errors are discussed. Experimental
results compared to those obtained with a piezo-electrically driven m
irror are presented. (C) 1998 Elsevier Science B.V.
