Self-Referenced Ambient Radiation Thermometer

NIST Inventors

Howard W. Yoon

In this work, we describe the construction and characterization of an Ambient-Radiation Thermometer (ART) which can measure non-contact temperatures from -50 deg C to 150 deg C. To increase the long-term stability of the responsivity, optical components within the field-of-view of the detector and

Self-Referenced Ambient Radiation Thermometer and Process For Determining a Temperature of a Blackbody Object

NIST Inventors

Howard W. Yoon

A self-referenced ambient radiation thermometer determines a temperature of a blackbody object and includes a temperature stabilized detector; a detector lens; a Lyot stop; a collimating lens; a field stop; an optical chopper such that the central radiation received by the temperature stabilized
