This experiment attempted to use an interferometer to detect bacteria. The basic idea behind an interferometer is to have a beam of collimated light which is split into two paths and then brought back ...

This is what our actual interferometer setup looked like. For reasons that will be explained later, our target is a small plastic slide glued onto a mirror mount. What happens if the target moves more ...

That is, the interferometer is moving and rotating in a three dimensional plane. To provide accurate measurement of the direction in a three-dimensional, coordinate conversion processes need to be ...

These systems, made by the life-sciences supplier Sartorius, utilize bio-layer interferometry (BLI) to monitor biomolecular interactions, label-free and in real time. When compared to other ...
