Eye-length measurement by interferometry with partially coherent light
Abstract
With a multimode semiconductor laser we have been able to measure the optical length of the eye within a precision of 0.03 mm. A first series of inυiυo measurements of several human beings shows good correlation with the acoustically determined eye length.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
