Fabry-Perot Interferometer

  1. Why is the lens kept behind the etalon and not after it?
  2. Why are we obtaining a circular fringe even though we use a point source of light?
  3. What change will occur if we fill the space between the etalon with a liquid of refractive index n.
  4. What will be the result if we use spherical mirrors instead of plane mirrors.
