Abstract

Interferometric determination of sphere radii is a well known technique. To keep accuracy high and uncertainties low, a precisely controlled environment is usually necessary. Environmental changes in temperature lead to time dependent drift in important measurement parameters and to disturbed results. We present a method to minimize time dependent drift to the first order. With this method, it is either possible to reduce the uncertainties further, or to relax environmental conditions and still be able to accomplish high precision measurements. We discuss two typical measurement configurations, the associated benefits and drawbacks and some relevant error sources.
