โฆ Synopsis
Note. The influence of lens abberations are not observed, because the interference pattern is small (approximately 3mm diameter)
Influence on the spatial frequency caused by using a sphere as the Fourier transform plane, cannot be observed for the same reason.
CONCLU~ON
The method described is very simple and requires very little optical equipment. Pinholes up to 100~m can be drilled without particular care. Once a series of pinhole plates is made measurements become very easy and repeatable.

This paper proposes a laser interferometer for determining the straightness of a moving stage. The optical setup is described and the theory is derived. The results show that this interferometer not only overcomes the disadvantages of the conventional interferometers but also provides a higher sensi
