Abstract
⺠We proposed a simple measurement technique for measuring small wavelength differences. ⺠The technique uses optical activity of cholesteric liquid crystal and heterodyne interferometry. ⺠In a circular regime, the phase difference varies significantly with the wavelength differences. ⺠The phase difference can be accurately detected by heterodyne interferometry. ⺠The feasibility of this method was demonstrated with a resolution of about 0.1 nm.
