Abstract: We analyse a feature that is detectable at the differential phases of high-resolution spectro-interferometry of Be stars. The origin of this feature (dubbed CQE-PS, Central Quasi Emission Phase Signature) lies in the differential absorption of photospheric radiation by the circumstellar disk, which is spectroscopically detected as a CQE line profile in shell stars. This phenomenon has great diagnostic potential for Be star disks, revealing properties of these disks on the scale of a few stellar radii.
