Abstract
We developed Fabry-Perot interferometer named NICT-FPI in Alaska project and have observed in several observatories in domestic and overseas. We deployed the instruments at Poker Flat research range and Eagle observatory, Alaska on 1998 and started the observation of aurora optics for deducing the neutral-ion coupling and vertical winds with active aurora. We can expect the technique to be widely applied in many fields, e.g., laser technology.
