Fabry-Perot Etalons Optical path difference = 2µl cos Phase difference = (2/) 2µl cos + r m = 2µl cos + r /2 Tuning: For fixed m, on-axis (=0) l Detuning: For fixed m, l, off-axis () cos 1 2/2 µ=index of refraction
Etalon Coating Design (17 Layers) m = 3 m = 1 SHORT 1500 to 2600 nm ~55 filters LONG 3000 to 5000 nm ~51 filters
