Abstract

The useable field-of-view of optical and infrared interferometers can be limited by a number of effects: geometric vignetting, violation of the convolution relation between object and image in a Michelson interferometer, insufficient sampling of the uv plane, and imperfect coupling of off-axis light into single-mode fibers. This article provides an overview of techniques that have been proposed to overcome these limitations.
