Hello all,
I've come across a lot of information on several types of interferometers, but most of this information is quite scattered along the literature. I've been asking around if anyone knows of a good reference book on interferometry and the different types of interferometers (such as Fabry-Pérot's, Mach's, Michelson's, Bath's).
Thank you in advance,
Alcides
Hello
You can find useful information about interferometry, different types of interferometrs and interferometers application to optical testing, in below book:
Field Guide to Interferometric Optical Testing

Eric P. Goodwin, James C. Wyant
Interferometry of Fibrous Materials

I think the wikipedia gives a brief introduction to interferometry showing also different setups with a very good literature.

hope this helps
Best regards
Dear all,
Thank you very much for your time answering this question. The books you've mentioned are known to me, but it's not exactly what I was looking for. But nevertheless, thank you very much!
Dear Mostafa,
The Wikipedia page is indeed delightful - much better than I hoped for. Thank you for your suggestion.
Dear Siamoa
I found this book a best introduction to different type of interferometry for practicing engineers & scientists in this field. The basics are covered well.

You may find it in Google & Amazon in your region also.

Dear Govind,
You've hit the jackpot! It's precisely what I was looking for! Thank you very very much!
Best,

You are welcome. I think there are two books by that same author check the contents of both.
“Fiber Optic Interferometry”, Chapter 10 in Fiber Optic Sensors: An Introduction for Engineers and Scientists, E. Udd (Ed.), 1991 (Mar).
Dear Alcides,
you can try this book - " Optical shop testing" by Malacara.
Thank you all. My needs have been fully covered by a previous post by Govinda - I needed a book that wasn't 'grounded' solely to optics. Nevertheless, thank you all for your kind contributions.
