We revisit the problem of choosing combinations of sources for multi-wavelength interferometry, using the risk of assigning the wrong integer interference order to a measured phase as a quantitative criterion. We model this risk, explicitly accounting for the experimenter’s ability to reject implausible measurement results. We present a general reliability limit for the method of exact fractions, which can be used as a benchmark when evaluating wavelength combinations, as well as performance estimates for several promising combinations.

选择波长并评估精确分数法的失误风险

我们使用将错误的整数干扰阶数分配给被测相位的风险作为定量标准，来重新考虑为多波长干涉测量选择光源组合的问题。我们对这种风险进行建模，明确说明了实验者拒绝令人难以置信的测量结果的能力。我们提出了精确分数方法的一般可靠性限制，可以在评估波长组合时用作基准，并可以对几种有希望的组合进行性能估算。
