339ir Specifications (PDF)

The collimator and reference surface are integral to the interferometer resulting in improved infrared throughput while eliminating additional costly components. Fabricated from optical grade silicon, the reference surface is flat to 1/10 wave measured at 632.8 nM (better than 1/50 wave at 3392 nM).  An internal Helium Neon laser provides the Model 339ir with a safe and stable source of 3.392 micron radiation to produce a high contrast, speckle-free interferogram

This turnkey instrument requires no additional Transmission flat for Plano work, and may be used for Spherical measurement with the addition of the appropriate Transmission sphere.

The infrared camera utilizes a 320 x 240 pixel focal plane array of pyroelectric elements and offers all of the extended lifetime advantages of uncooled systems.  A number of user selectable image types are provided by the camera's software which the operator can access from the rear panel of the interferometer.  Such adjustments can be used to optimize contrast and brightness of the interferogram as seen on the computer monitor.

The normal time required for the Infrared camera to reach thermal equilibrium is about 30 minutes. It is recommended to turn off the camera when the interferometer is not to be used for many hours in order to avoid unnecessary use of the detector.
