The high resolution imaging technology based on optical interferometry will open up broad prospects for research in astrophysics. The authors describe its astrophysical applications, including studies on stellar physics, binary and multiple stars, quasars and nuclei of galaxies, protoplanetary, circumstellar shells, etc. The Mark III stellar interferometer and the Infrared Spatial Interferometer (ISI) have brought a few encouraging results for binary star measurements and circumstellar shell observations. The space astrometric interferometer, POINTS, will be of inestimably benefit for the survey of Cepheid parallaxes, the determination of masses of stars in binary systems, the study of the Galactic structure and the mass distribution in the Galaxy. The authors can only give a brief introduction for potential abilities of optical interferometry and aperture synthesis in the field of astrophysics.
