Abstract:
Temperature of a body is determined by measuring the infrared radiation emitted by the body while simultaneously viewing the body. The body is viewed through a viewing cone with visible wavelength light conducted to the body from a remote source by optical fibers. Infrared radiation emitted by the body is collected by infrared-transmitting fibers which conduct the infrared energy to a remote sensor.
Protected Airborne Window For Infrared Radiation And Method Of Making Same
An external window for infrared radiation is protected from hostile environments by forming a bulk window of gallium arsenide and depositing a protective layer of silicon on the external surface. A grid-like pattern of conductive lines is formed in the silicon layer to provide a heated de-icer and to act as a shield against longer wavelength electromagnetic radiation.
