Abstract: We discuss a simple experiment for detecting small deformations by speckle interferometry. The optical setup uses a laser diode for the source together with a lens to expand the laser beam and a beam splitter dividing the beam and illuminating two scattering surfaces. A low-cost, commercial charge coupled device (CCD) photocamera provides images of the two superimposed speckle fields through the beam splitter. We first take a picture with the system at rest, and then take a second one after a deformation is made in a surface. By simple subtraction of the digital pictures, we obtain a fringe pattern that gives us information about the deformation. (C) 2004 American Association of Physics Teachers.
