In this paper the Fourier transform of the time-interval probability (FT-TIP) technique is applied to a fluorescence decay spectroscopy experiment in which a very small signal is detected. The lifetime of the 4 F9/2, level of Er3+ ions in an Er-doped glass is measured by the FT-TIP technique. It is concluded that this technique can be applied to lifetime measurement with small errors, in those experiments where standard techniques do not work well because of the small detected signal.

SynopsisThe interpretation of optical interference experiments at low light intensities and with independent light sources is discussed. A new experiment on interference between modulated light beams is described briefly, and its significance is indicated. There are two appendices, one a fuller discussion of the conditions under which interference and intensity correlation may be produced, the other a comment on one aspect of Jánossy and Nagy's discussion (1956) of the feasibility of the alternating slit interference experiment.
