Fabry–Pérot interferometer

In optics, a Fabry–Pérot interferometer (FPI), or etalon, is an optical cavity made from two parallel reflecting surfaces (mirrors). Optical waves can pass through the optical cavity only when they are in resonance with it. It is named after French physicists Charles Fabry and Alfred Perot, who developed the instrument in 1899. Etalon is from the French…
