Sumario:[ANGLÈS] The project is dedicated to the development of a compact shearing interferometric optical sensor for biological applications. The main goal is the implementation of a patented optical device based on polarization shearing interferometry into a laboratory setup, which can evolve into a commercial product. Preliminary work implies a detailed theoretical calculation of the properties of the optical components to get expectation values on the system performance. The theoretical predictions show that the achievable efficiency is high enough to compete with already existing devices. Experimental work consists of the development, alignment and testing of the system.
