| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
In 2009, the national standard of length in Japan was changed from the iodine-stabilized He-Ne laser to the femtosecond optical frequency comb (FOFC). Because the He-Ne laser is monochromatic light, its wavelength was used as a practical standard to realize the meter. On the other hand, FOFC is coherent polychromatic light. In addition to wavelength, FOFC contains another length unit, the adjacent pulse repetition interval length (APRIL), which is a coherent combination of multiple wavelengths.Instead of using wavelength, we have employed the APRIL as a standard and proposed an APRIL-based homodyne interferometer.As an alternative to the conventional two-color (that is, wavelength-based) length-measurement technique, we propose a two-color method based on the adjacent pulse repetition interval length (APRIL), the physical length associated with the pulse repetition period.
