Book Spatial Heterodyne Spectroscopy

Download or read book Spatial Heterodyne Spectroscopy written by Cara P. Perkins and published by . This book was released on 2013 with total page 238 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "This work presents a radiometric model of a spatial heterodyne spectrometer (SHS) and a corresponding interferogram-processing algorithm for the calculation of calibrated spectral radiance measurements. The SHS relies on Fourier Transform Spectroscopy (FTS) principles, and shares design similarities with the Michelson Interferometer. The advantages of the SHS design, including the lack of moving parts, high throughput, and instantaneous spectral measurements, make it suitable as a field-deployable instrument. Operating in the long-wave infrared (LWIR), the imaging SHS design example included provides the capability of performing chemical detection based on reflectance and emissivity properties of surfaces of organic compounds. This LWIR SHS model takes into account the instruments entrance optics, interferometer, exit optics, and detection scheme to output realistic, interferometric data. The model serves as a tool to find the optimal SHS design parameters for the desired performance requirements and system application. It also assists in the data analysis and system characterization. The interferogram-processing algorithm performs flat-fielding and phase corrections as well as apodization before recovering the measured spectral radiance from the recorded interferogram via the Inverse Fourier Transform (IFT). The model and processing algorithm are tested with a variety of spectra and the results are comparable to those in the literature with a noise-equivalent change in temperature of 0.2K. These results demonstrate the model's validity and the algorithm's performance. Additional experiments show the algorithm's real-time processing capability, indicating the LWIR SHS system presented is feasible."--Abstract.

Book Doppler Asymmetric Spatial Heterodyne Spectroscopy  DASH   Concept and Experimental Demonstration

Download or read book Doppler Asymmetric Spatial Heterodyne Spectroscopy DASH Concept and Experimental Demonstration written by and published by . This book was released on 2007 with total page 12 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: We describe the concept of Doppler asymmetric spatial heterodyne spectroscopy (DASH) and present a laboratory Doppler-shift measurement using an infrared laser line. DASH is a modification of spatial heterodyne spectroscopy optimized for high precision, high accuracy Doppler-shift measurements of atmospheric emission lines either from the ground or a satellite. We discuss DASH design considerations, field widening, thermal stability and tracking, noise propagation, advantages, and trade-offs. DASH interferometers do not require moving optical parts and can be built in rugged, compact packages, making them suitable for space flight and mobile ground instrumentation.

Book Tunable All Reflective Spatial Heterodyne Spectroscopy  a Technique for High Resolving Power Observation Ol Defused Emission Line Sources

Download or read book Tunable All Reflective Spatial Heterodyne Spectroscopy a Technique for High Resolving Power Observation Ol Defused Emission Line Sources written by Seyedeh Sona Hosseini and published by . This book was released on 2013 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The solar system presents a challenge to spectroscopic observers, because it is an astrophysically low energy environment populated with often angularly extended targets (e.g, interplanetary medium, comets, planetary upper atmospheres, and planet and satellite near space environments). Spectroscopy is a proven tool for determining compositional and other properties of remote objects. Narrow band imaging and low resolving spectroscopic measurements provide information about composition, photochemical evolution, energy distribution and density. The extension to high resolving power provides further access to temperature, velocity, isotopic ratios, separation of blended sources, and opacity effects. The drawback of high-resolution spectroscopy comes from the instrumental limitations of lower throughput, the necessity of small entrance apertures, sensitivity, field of view, and large physical instrumental size. These limitations quickly become definitive for faint and/or extended targets and for spacecraft encounters.An emerging technique with promise for the study of faint, extended sources at high resolving power is the all-reflective form of the Spatial Heterodyne Spectrometer (SHS). SHS instruments are compact and naturally possess both high étendue and high resolving power. To achieve similar spectral grasp, grating spectrometers require big telescopes. SHS is a common-path beam Fourier transform interferometer that produces Fizeau fringe pattern for all other wavelengths except the tuned wavelength. Compared to similar Fourier transform Spectrometers (FTS), SHS has considerably relaxed optical tolerances that make it easier to use in the visible and UV spectral ranges. The large étendue of SHS instruments makes them ideal for observations of extended, low surface brightness, isolated emission line sources, while their intrinsically high spectral resolution enables the study of the dynamical and spectral characteristics described above. SHS also combines very high (R >105) spectral resolution and large étendue in a small package that is compatible with space mission requirements that have not been met with any other SHS technologies to date.One limitation of current SHS designs is the lack of a broadband capability. To address this gap we are developing a form of the reflective SHS that is tunable over a wide range of wavelength (TSHS). In this work, we describe the primary TSHS concept in a mathematical approach, describe the variations under development, and discuss their scientific potential for the exploration of faint extended targets. An in-development laboratory prototype of a second generation TSHS in which we address several technical limitations noted in earlier studies is shown.This document contains three chapters. Chapter 1, is an overview of the scientific need for a new instrument that we are introducing here and it is an summery of previous papers. Chapter 2 contains new work developing the mathematical frame work for the all reflective SHS. The results presented in this chapter have not been reported in any related literature before and will be presented in an upcoming conference paper. Chapter 3 contains a laboratory report for construction of a tunable all reflective SHS.

Book 4th International Symposium of Space Optical Instruments and Applications

Download or read book 4th International Symposium of Space Optical Instruments and Applications written by H. Paul Urbach and published by Springer. This book was released on 2018-10-05 with total page 284 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book gathers selected and expanded contributions presented at the 4th Symposium on Space Optical Instruments and Applications, which was held in Delft, the Netherlands, on October 16–18, 2017. This conference series is organized by the Sino-Holland Space Optical Instruments Laboratory, a cooperative platform between China and the Netherlands. The symposium focused on key technological problems regarding optical instruments and their applications in a space context. It covered the latest developments, experiments and results on the theory, instrumentation and applications of space optics. The book is split into five main sections: The first covers optical remote sensing system design, the second focuses on advanced optical system design, and the third addresses remote sensor calibration and measurement. Remote sensing data processing and information extraction are then presented, followed by a final section on remote sensing data applications.
