Resonant Chopper Systems
Electro-Optical Products Corp.
An external clock signal, to provide an ultra stable modulating optical beam motion [sub] system. The system can be used as a "stand alone" unit, in the laboratory, or can be incorporated into a larger instrument/system. The chopper is ONE FIXED FREQUENCY, picked from the range of 5 Hz to 20 kHz. The chopper is a small size, light weigh, low cost and long life device. It requires low power drive electronics and does not radiate electromagnetic interference (EMI). It has high frequency stability and high amplitude stability. The chopper is IR, VIS and UV and high vacuum capable. Reference signal and position output available.

Optical Chopper
These high stability variable frequency optical choppers each include a set of chemically blackened photoetched chopping discs. The mini chopper is an excellent choice for applications requiring a compact package. The chopping discs come in a variety of slot apertures and allow operation. Beam diameter is limited to 0.75mm when using the 200-slot disc and 1.0mm when using the 40 slot mini disc. The easy-to-interchange blades are made of non-magnetic, half hard brass and can be used in combination. Chopping frequency is set by adjusting a ten-turn dial or by applying an external DC voltage to the BNC input. Reference output is a TTL pulse and is in-phase with chopping action. The 5 digit led display gives a direct read-out of the chopping frequency. Power: 90-130V or 180-260V; 50/60Hz; 12VA max. Power supply included. Choppers are often used together with lock-in amplifiers.

Light Sources
There are many low cost artificial light sources used for illumination or for industrial applications: tungsten or halogen bulbs, fluorescent lamps, LED lamps etc. Some of these sources have regulated intensity of emitted light. However, there very few calibrated light sources of precisely known parameters. A light source can be considered as calibrated when its user can precisely regulate its photometric/radiometric parameters like luminance (or illuminance), radiance (or irradiance) at defined spectrum of interest. Such light sources are needed in many applications among them, in systems for testing night vision devices, VIS-NIR cameras and SWIR imagers. Inframet offers a series of calibrated light sources that can be divides into three groups:
