Fabry-Perot interferometers (FPIs) with multilayer dielectric mirrors and mirror spacings as low as 0.7% of the operating wavelength are studied. It is shown how these low-order FPIs are affected by the phase dispersion characteristics of multilayer dielectric mirrors. Because experimental results in the optical regime are extremely difficult to obtain, radio frequency experiments are performed with coaxial cable FPI structures. Experimental results show excellent agreement with theory. These phase effects in FPIs with ultrathin mirror spacings are of great interest in the design of tunable microcavities with possible applications in optical communications.
研究了具有多层介质镜且镜间距低至工作波长0.7%的法布里-珀罗干涉仪（FPI）。展示了这些低阶FPI如何受到多层介质镜的相位色散特性的影响。由于在光学领域极难获得实验结果，因此采用同轴电缆FPI结构进行射频实验。实验结果与理论结果吻合得非常好。这些具有超薄镜间距的FPI中的相位效应在可调谐微腔的设计中具有重要意义，可能应用于光通信领域。
