Laser Phase Interferometry is a measurement technique that uses the interference of laser beams to detect extremely small changes in distance, refractive index, or vibration. At NEC Labs America, laser phase interferometry is applied in distributed fiber sensing and high-sensitivity monitoring. The approach allows researchers to measure environmental changes at fine resolution, advancing applications in structural health monitoring, seismic detection, and precision metrology.

Strain Accumulation Rate in Fiber Spools in the Presence of Ambient Acoustic Noise in Laser Phase Interferometry

We investigate the growth rate of phase power spectral density in fiber spools in the presence of ambient acoustic noise, observing a complex interplay between spool geometry, shielding effects, and phase cancellation at high acoustic frequencies.
