Pereira, S.F. Braat, J.J.M. Faculty Applied Sciences Department Imaging Science and Technology Date 2006-02-01 Abstract We introduce the concept of chromatism compensation in nulling interferometry that enables a high rejection ratio in a wide spectral band. Therefore the achromaticity condition considered in most nulling interferometers can be relaxed. We show that this chromatism compensation cannot be applied to a two-beam nulling interferometer, and we make an analysis of the particular case of a three-telescope configuration.
