  • Detector/imager
    Patent number: 7995204
    Abstract: A back scatter absorption detector/imager having an optical parametric device for generating sensing radiation, the optical parametric device having a nonlinear medium (NLC) and a pump wave laser source, the nonlinear medium (NLC) being able to generate a signal and an idler wave in response to being stimulated with the pump wave, thereby to generate sensing radiation, and a detector (D) for detecting any sensing radiation back-scattered from a target area, characterized in that the pump wave laser source and the nonlinear medium (NLC) are provided in the same optical cavity.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: November 29, 2005
    Date of Patent: August 9, 2011
    Assignee: The University Court of the University of St. Andrews
    Inventors: David Stothard, Malcolm Dunn, Cameron Rae
