Abstract

The paper demonstrates two microinterferometric techniques applied to fibres and other small transparent objects. They enable simultaneous determination of the directional refractive indices and the thickness of isotropic and anisotropic single-medium fibres. The techniques are based on the Pluta birefracting microinterferometer Biolar PI. The paper includes comparison of different approaches and the error analysis.
