Recovery of Fabry-Perot fringes from one-dimensional charge-coupled device images

The use of a (CCD) with an interferometer, such as a Fabry-Perot, poses some problems because of the circular symmetry with the interferometer and the rectangular arrangement of the CCD. Integrating the fringe pattern along a row or column results in a signature that can be inverted to recover the f...

Description
Summary:The use of a (CCD) with an interferometer, such as a Fabry-Perot, poses some problems because of the circular symmetry with the interferometer and the rectangular arrangement of the CCD. Integrating the fringe pattern along a row or column results in a signature that can be inverted to recover the fringe. The methods of constrained linear inversion are used to significantly improve the quality of the inversion. (Author)
