Tunable moiré grating for optical mapping

Opt Lett. 1979 Oct 1;4(10):314-6. doi: 10.1364/ol.4.000314.

Abstract

The use of a moiré pattern as a tunable grating is proposed. The moiré pattern is created by placing one grating upon another with a varying angle between them. A demonstration of the use of this tunable grating for moiré mapping and a discussion of the limitations and possible applications of this method are given.
