Dispersion Interferometry for Relative Atmospheric Pressure Measurement — •Hugo Uittenbosch, Peter Mahnke, Raoul-Amadeus Lorbeer, and Oliver Kliebisch — Institute of Technical Physics, German Aerospace Center, Pfaffenwaldring 38-40, 70569 Stuttgart, Germany
Second harmonic interferometry is a common method in fusion research to measure dispersive phase shifts, i.e. for line-average electron densities [1]. Using this technique, a contact-less, relative barometer is implemented by measuring the pressure-dependent dispersive phase shift in air. This change in phase is converted into a change in pressure via the Ciddor equation [2]. In order to minimize the footprint of the experimental setup, a single crystal dispersion interferometer (SCDI) [3] is improved upon by generating a reference beam which contains both the fundamental and second harmonic beam coaxially, thereby reducing the system complexity. The device is used to measure changes in the dispersion of air in a pressurized chamber between 101 to 105 Pa and compared against a piezoresistive pressure transceiver. The deviation between both sensors was found to be less than 150 Pa.
