Scientific paper

This paper describes a wavefront-shearing interferometer for characterizing cryogenic targets in situ. The interferometer, which is based on the Saunder's shearing cube, is easy to adjust and is very stable in the presence of mechanical vibration; it produces fringes of high contrast without sacrificing intensity. The interferometer has been used with a low power pulsed laser to measure both the effect of amplified spontaneous emission, produced by the high power laser, and the effect of room-temperature thermal radiation on cryogenic targets.
