Abstract: The invention relates to a field-compensated interferometer (1) including an optical assembly (2) for directing incident light beams (4) having a field angle ? relative to an optical axis of the interferometer (1), into arms (5, 6) of the interferometer, and a beam splitter (12), the arms (5, 6) including at least one mechanically movable optical device (15, 16) for generating a variable optical path difference between beams generated by the separation of each incident beam (4) using said beam splitter (12), said interferometer (1) being characterized in that it includes at least one field compensation optical element (E) arranged in one or the other of the image focal planes of the optical assembly (2), said image focal planes being combined relative to the beam splitter (12), said element (E) including at least one surface (9) that is curved so as to generate a path difference between the incident beams having a non-zero field angle and the incident beams having a zero field angle, the generated path differ

Abstract: The invention pertains to a static interferometry system comprising two mirrors produced respectively by vertical assemblage (EH) and horizontal assemblage (EV) of a set of parallel plates of constant width, shifted along the optical axis so as to form stairs of variable optical path difference, the said two staircase mirrors (EH, EV) being disposed orthogonally so as to form, by optical superposition, a set of square facets engendering different optical path differences for the incident signal, and a detection device (DET) for detecting the set of optical path differences of the resulting interferogram. The system comprises, furthermore, means of continuous variation (LC) of the optical path difference during the acquisition of data by the detection device (DET), and sampling means (S, ACQL) for sampling the continuous optical path difference acquired while complying with the Nyquist criterion.
