First fringes with an integrated-optics beam combiner at 10 microns. A new step towards instrument miniaturization for mid-infrared interferometry

by L. Labadie, G. Martin, N. C. Anheier, B. Arezki, H. A. Qiao, B. Bernacki, and P. Kern, A&A 531, A48

This article reports the first experimental demonstration of the feasibility of an integrated-optics approach to mid-infrared beam combination for single-mode stellar interferometry.
