ABSTRACT
A novel Mott polarization analysis system is described. This system is much simpler than earlier designs and offers improved rejection of electrons inelastically scattered from the gold target foil. In addition the analyzer is capable of ''in-line'' polarization measurements.
ABSTRACT
Films of BiF(3) with thicknesses up to 2.35 microm have been deposited on KCl. Similar optical properties have been obtained in films prepared by thermal evaporation and reactive sputtering in a Freon atmosphere. A very broad transmission range from 2600 A to 20 microm has been measured on BiF(3) films ~1 microm thick. Far ir and Auger spectra are presented. BiF(3) appears promising as a new optical thin film coating for applications not involving high powers at 10.6 microm and longer wavelengths.
ABSTRACT
The widespread use of laser calorimetry for small absorption coefficient measurements implies that the procedure has reached a certain maturity. With several wavelengths available with significant power levels from different lasers, calorimetry can be considered as an extension of spectroscopy. In this sense, it becomes desirable to automate the calorimetric measurements. We describe the automated calorimeter built at Honeywell. Measurements can be made on bulk samples and on thin films deposited on substrates. Details of the experiment and computer control approach are given. This automated calorimeter has given us the capability to examine large numbers of samples and to determine the effects of various processing steps on bulk absorption.
