In this paper, we study samples of an optically transparent ferroelectric polymer film with deposited nanoscale electrically conductive coatings designed to modulate the transmitted electromagnetic radiation of the visible and near-infrared wavelengths. Such films can be used, for example, in interference devices for phase delay compensation or for the implementation of the Phase Shifting Interferometry, in adaptive optics, etc. To measure the phase delay of the radiation passing through the samples under study, an installation based on the Mach-Zehnder interferometer was used. In the illumination branch of the installation, a broadband radiation source and an acousto-optic tunable filter are installed; in one of the arms of the interferometer, the test sample is installed. The interference pattern was recorded on a matrix radiation receiver; the phase information was decoded by digital holography methods. The report presents the results of measurements and shows that a modulation of the passed optical radiation occurs under the influence of the electric field as a result of changes in the geometrical dimensions of the film.
