Difference between Interferometry and Optical path length

Interferometry vs. Optical path length

Interferometry is a family of techniques in which waves, usually electromagnetic waves, are superimposed causing the phenomenon of interference in order to extract information. In optics, optical path length (OPL) or optical distance is the product of the geometric length of the path light follows through the system, and the index of refraction of the medium through which it propagates(OP.

Similarities between Interferometry and Optical path length

Interferometry and Optical path length have 5 things in common (in Unionpedia): Coherence (physics), Electromagnetic radiation, Phase (waves), Refractive index, Wave interference.

Coherence (physics)

In physics, two wave sources are perfectly coherent if they have a constant phase difference and the same frequency, and the same waveform.

Electromagnetic radiation

In physics, electromagnetic radiation (EM radiation or EMR) refers to the waves (or their quanta, photons) of the electromagnetic field, propagating (radiating) through space-time, carrying electromagnetic radiant energy.
