  • System for vibration isolation of FT-IR interferometers
    Patent number: 5030007
    Abstract: In an on-line scanning sensor system, certain components of an FT-IR interferometer are isolated from vibrations that cause inaccuracies in measurements provided by the system, thereby allowing the sensor system to be used on-line in manufacturing environments. More particularly, vibration-absorbing suspension devices suspend selected interferometer components such that the center of suspension of the suspended interferometer component is substantially coincident with the center of gravity of the suspended components.

  • System for detecting chemical changes in materials by embedding in materials an unclad fiber optic sensor section
    Patent number: 4827121
    Abstract: A system for detecting chemical characteristics within a material includes an optical fiber having a relatively short unclad sensor section for embedding in a material, a source of infrared radiation to direct infrared radiation into the fiber, and an optical decoder connected to the fiber to detect the spectrum of infrared radiation absorbed by the material in which the sensor section is embedded.
