New inner-shell resonance lines in highly ionized sulfur and chlorine from high-energy theta-pinch plasma light source
High Q Fabry-Perot interferometer for measurement of atmospheric gas losses, particularly water vapor absorption, using coherent light source in 100-300 gc frequency range
Absolute pressure calibration system using a Michelson interferometer calibrates phase characteristics and pressure sensitivities of the transducers that monitor acoustic or aerodynamic pressure fields. The interferometer uses a helium-neon laser light source and interchangeable acoustic signal generators to produce acoustic waves.
Modified Ulbricht sphere measures stray radiation caused by irregularities in the reflective surface of an optical test specimen. The test specimen is positioned between a light source and exit port and all diffusely scattered radiation is measured by a photomultiplier tube in the sphere.
Light from a conventional photographic light source is polarized and projected through thin samples of gadolinium iron garnet and then observed with a conventional polarizing microscope. A distinctive change in color from red to yellow is observed as the magnetic domains are switched.
Sleeve-type shutters mechanically adjust individual galvanometer light beams onto or away from selected channels on oscillograph papers. In complex test setups, the sleeve-type shutters are color coded to separately identify each oscillograph channel. This technique could be used on any equipment using tubular galvanometer light sources.
Vortex stabilized arc, pressure arc facility, spectral irradiance measurements of light sources, and ultrahigh vacuum system in support of solar simulation testing
Automatic acquisition and tracking of pupil-iris boundary and of corneal reflection of light source in oculometer using electro-optic method for eye direction measurement
Monitoring device detects and indicates directly the amount of contamination deposited on a surface. It uses an optical system in conjunction with a reliable collimated light source and associated electronics. Change in its output signal is proportional to change in the optical absorption characteristics of the sample plate surface.
Gallium arsenide electro-optic modulator used for infrared lasers has a mica quarter-wave plate and two calcite polarizers to amplitude or phase modulate an infrared laser light source in the wavelength range from 1 to 3 microns. The large single crystal has uniformly high resistivities, is strain free, and comparable in quality to good optical glass.
Rapid-response electro-optical, light exposure control system, will maintain the light reaching a camera film or other light-sensitive detector at essentially constant level, despite wide variations in the brightness of the light source. The system permits detailed photographic or photoelectric recording of the phenomenon over a range of brightnesses.

Cosmic light search by midlatitude zenith sky observations to extract diffuse light from totality of extragalactic light sources
Plan for generating a two dimensional contour map of a distant object with range contour intervals of a few millimeters to a few inches is accomplished by using a laser light source which has a periodically varying coherence function to form a hologram of the object.
Diffusion pump oil reflectance and absorption coefficients measured in three thicknesses using light source, monochromator and detector
