Abstract
In this manuscript, a novel low coherence interferometer configuration is presented, equipped in each arm with an adjustable optical path length ring. By compensating the losses in the two rings using semiconductor optical amplifiers, interference of low coherence light after traversing the two rings 18 times is obtained. This configuration can successfully be employed to produce simultaneous en-face OCT images from different depths.
