The effect of a relative velocity upsilon between source and retardation plate is to create an additional retardation, deltaphi, proportional to (nu/c) (l/lambda), where c is the velocity of light, i the plate thickness, and lambda the wavelength of the light. The effect suggests a possible solution to the problem of mode locking in ring lasers and a method, of increasing sensitivity in a Sagnac polarization ring interferometer. The effect is compared with those sought unsuccessfully by Lord Rayleigh and Brace around 1900.
光源与延迟板之间的相对速度υ会产生一个额外的延迟量Δφ,其与(υ/c)(l/λ)成正比,其中c为光速,l为板的厚度,λ为光的波长。该效应为环形激光器中的锁模问题提供了一种可能的解决方案,也为提高萨尼亚克偏振环形干涉仪的灵敏度提供了一种方法。将该效应与1900年左右瑞利勋爵和布雷斯未成功找到的效应进行了比较。
