title: Measurement of small vibration amplitudes of a rough surface by an interferometer with a self-pumped phase-conjugate mirror.
abstract: The application of a Michelson interferometer with a self-pumped phase-conjugate mirror to measure small vibration amplitudes of a rough surface is described. The distorted wave front of the light that is diffusely reflected from the rough surface is restored by phase conjugation to provide an interference signal with a high signal-to-noise ratio. The vibration amplitudes of a stainless-steel sample are measured with a precision of approximately 5 nm.
