Abstract
We introduce the principles of multiple-beam interference in two optical interference structures—the rectangular cavity and the isosceles wedge with a large vertex angle—and prove that they both meet the requirements of interference. We also explain the equivalent and complementary effects of these two structures to Fabry-Pérot interference technology and discuss the distinctive characteristics and the possibility of application. Furthermore, we display our initial experimental results.
