Both Michelson interferometer and Lamellar Grating interferometer configurations are demonstrated. +/- 500 mu m translational motion (corresponding to 5 cm(-1) spectral resolution) is demonstrated with the moving platform. Two methods are proposed and partially demonstrated for pure translational motion: (I) integrated control system using a quad photo detector feedback and (2) corner cube retroreflector. The fundamental advantages and the limits of the lamellar grating interferometers are also discussed.EngineeringElectrical and electronic engineeringOpticsConference proceeding27750260002810308
