We propose and demonstrate a novel method to enhance the visibility of an optical interferometer when measuring low reflective materials. Because of scattering from a rough surface or its own low reflectivity, the visibility of the obtained interference signal is seriously deteriorated. By amplifying the weak light coming from the sample based on an injection-locking technique, the visibility can be enhanced. As a feasibility test, even with a sample having a reflectivity of 0.6%, we obtained almost the same visibility as a metal coated mirror. The suggested visibility enhanced interferometer can be widely used for measuring low reflective materials.
