The book explores the innovative self-mixing effect in laser technology, which utilizes lasers as both the light source and detector, enhancing measurement systems' compactness and robustness. It focuses on the potential of Vertical-Cavity Surface-Emitting Lasers (VCSELs) for creating cost-effective, highly-parallel self-mixing imaging systems. Key performance factors such as transverse modes, signal-to-noise ratio, and optical setup influence are thoroughly examined, making it a crucial resource for professionals in optical metrology and self-mixing interferometry theory.
