Abstract
The time averaged frame subtraction technique is improved by subtracti ng two Bessel fringe patterns at two different force levels. The techn ique enables significant enhancement of fringe contrast and increased measurement sensitivity. The contrast and sensitivity of the fringes o btained at different force ratios are investigated, Both theoretical a nd experimental results are presented. (C) 1997 Elsevier Science Ltd.
