An automatic interference refractometer.

چکیده
Interference refractometry is a well-established method of determining the concentration of anaesthetic agents in gas mixtures. A photo-electric detector system has been fitted to a small portable, direct-reading interference refractometer to display automatically the concentration of the agent being measured. The design of the instrument is described and two possible methods of information display are suggested.

All-fiber multimode-interference-based refractometer sensor: proposal and design.
A novel all-fiber refractometer sensor is proposed, which is based on multimode interference in the multimode fiber core section sandwiched between two single-mode fibers. A wide-angle beam propagation method in the cylindrical coordinate is employed as the modeling tool for simulation and design of the proposed refractometer sensor. The design for a refractometer is presented that shows that t...
متن کاملComparison between refractometer and retinoscopy in determining refractive errors in children--false doubt.
Early detection of a refractive error and its correction are extremely important for the prevention of amblyopia (poor vision). The golden standard in the detection of refractive errors is retinoscopy--a method where the pupils are dilated in order to exclude accomodation. This results in a more accurate measurement of a refractive error. Automatic computer refractometer is also in use. The stu...
متن کاملThe Interference Microscope as a Refractometer for Liquids
Determination of the refractive index of liquids by the interference microscope was made possible by the use of a specially constructed holder for the liquid. This ensures a permanent lateral separation between the reference and the object areas and, as the depth of the object area is continuously increasing, a system of fringes is observed. The spacing of the fringes is a function of the refra...
متن کاملComparison between an Interefrometric Technique and an Auto- Refractometer for Dioptric and Prismatic Power Measurement of Ophthalmic Lenses
Method and materials Testing of trial ophthalmic lenses, spherical and cylindrical, was carried out using an interferometric technique in order to estimate the dioptric and prismatic power of these lenses. The ophthalmic lenses were measured with a laser light, using a Twyman Green interferometer, and interference patterns were acquired and processed, obtaining the dioptric and prismatic power ...
متن کاملA spectroscopic refractometer based on plasmonic interferometry
We describe the design, fabrication, and testing of a spectroscopic refractometer that employs plasmonic interferometry to measure the optical dielectric functions of materials in the visible range. The proposed device, dubbed a plasmonic refractometer, consists of an array of slit-groove plasmonic interferometers etched in a 300 nm-thick metal film (silver or gold) with arm lengths varying in ...
