Abstract
Using the dispersion models, it is possible to derive the effective temperature in an optical beam by the measurement of the optical path length at two well-known optical wavelengths. We are currently developing a gradient thermometer based on this principle, deploying multi-wavelength interferometry for the length measurement. This shall enable beam bending compensation in optical levelling of large structures. A Monte-Carlo investigation reveals practical obstacles and limitations of this promising temperature measurement approach.
