Authors: Skripal A. V., Dobdin S. Y., Dzhafarov A. V., Sadchikova K. A., Dubrovskaia I. A.

Background and Objectives: Traditional methods for measuring the acceleration by changing the position of extremums on the time axis, as well as methods based on the use of least squares and wavelet analysis, require significant signal processing efforts: filtering and allocating extremums or significant time for processing an autodyne signal. The proposed method for measuring the acceleration of the spectrum of the self-mixing signal uses a well-established machine method of Fourier analysis, which is widely used for processing complex waveforms.

Authors: Abramov A. Y., Ryabukho V. P., Shipovskaya A. B.

Mutual diffusion process in glycerol−water system was studied by laser interferometry technique. Descriptions of optical schemes, experimental technique using multi-beam laser microinterferometer and method of digital interferogram processing are presented. Kinetics of spatial distribution of the refractive index of a medium during mass transfer process is determined and diffusion coefficients are found.

Authors: Usanov D. A., Skripal A. V., Dobdin S. Y., Astakhov E. I., Kostyuchenko I. S., Dzhafarov A. V.

Background and Objectives: Two methods of distance interferometry for two types of wave modulation of laser radiation have been presented. The methods of triangular and harmonic wave modulation of a signal have been described. The advantages of the triangular wave modulation method in combination with the use of the frequency of the self-mixing signal spectrum, as well as the advantages of the harmonic wave modulation method in combination with the use of the amplitudes of the self-mixing signal spectrum have been shown.
