 Fabry-Perot Interferometer
In the Fabry - Perot interferometer, the multiple beam interference fringes from a plane parallel plate illuminated near normal incidance are used.
Until the development of all-dielectric multi-layer reflection coatings, which have low light-loss coefficients, the Fabry - Perot interferometer had very little application to the spectrometry of faint light sources, although it was used by Fabry and Buisson as early as 1911 on the relatively bright Orion nebula, though with lossy metallic layers.
In this way, Fabry and Perot were able to observe directly the fine structure of spectral lines which Michelson could only infer, and the Fabry-Perot interferometer has since played a dominant role in this branch of spectroscopy.

 Fiber-optic interferometer Fabry-Perot
In fiber optic interferometer Fabry-Perot the interference occurs at the partially reflecting end face surface of the fiber and an external mirror.
Generally, the intensity of interfering rays can be essentially different (for example, in a fiber optic interferometer where the intensity of the beam reflected from the end face of the fiber about an order of magnitude less than the intensity of the radiation reflected from the mirror and returned back into the fiber).
Additionally, such interferometer is not sensitive to electro-magnetic interference and can be used in hostile environment.
