Design and Characterization of a Birefringent-Type Compact Displacement Sensor for Improving Measurement Sensitivity by a Guided-Wave Beam

A compact displacement sensor (CDS) fabricated with the combinations of a birefringent KTP and cylindrical lens is proposed to be applied for optical displacement measurements in a common-path interferometer. To overcome the beam distortion issues of an original laser beam (OLB) in the small radius...
