Abstract
A method is proposed for improving the accuracy of measuring the wedge angle of transparent plates using a lateral-shear holographic interferometer. Consecutive processing of a pair of interferograms with doubled number of interference fringes leads to reduction of the observational error by a factor of two compared to traditional interferometric methods. Data on the experimental validation of the method are presented.
