Abstract
Fabry-Perot interferometer with curved plates is described. It is found tha t the partially reflecting surfaces of the Fabry-Perot interferometer need not be necessarily flat. The pair of Fabry-Perot plates may be curved but t he surfaces must be well matched with an accuracy better than lambda /100. (C) 2000 Elsevier Science Ltd. All rights reserved.
