    Abstract: The invention concerns a tandem interferometer for temperature sensing. The low coherence interferometry (LCI) system comprises a polarization-based sensing interferometer comprising a birefringent crystal having a sensor temperature sensitivity and a birefringence dispersion, and a readout interferometer being either a Fizeau interferometer using an optical wedge or a polarization interferometer using a birefringent wedge. In one embodiment of the invention, the birefringent crystal has dispersion properties similar to that of the birefringent wedge or that of the optical wedge of the readout interferometer. The present invention also provides a signal processing method for correcting the dispersion effect and for noise filtering in LCI-based optical sensors of the tandem interferometer arrangement.

    Abstract: Remote sensing of the temperature of a greybody or blackbody radiator is effected by passing its radiation (24) through a modulated infrared filter spectrometer. The infrared filter comprises, in sequence, a band pass filter (20), a first polariser (21) which polarises the radiation, an electro-optical element (22) which splits the polarised radiation into two orthogonally polarised components, and a second polariser (23). A lens (28) images the radiation leaving the second polariser onto a detector (27). The electrical signal from the detector (27) is input to a numerical analyser. The electro-optical element (22), typically comprising a birefringent crystal assembly (25) and a birefringent trim plate (26), is configured so that the net optical delay of the orthogonally polarised components passed through it is such that the recombined components are at or near a peak or trough in their interferogram. A sinusoidally varying voltage is applied to the electro-optical element to modulate the net delay of the components passed through the electro-optical element. The numerical analyser is programmed to compute the harmonic amplitude ratio (the ratio of signal amplitudes at the fundamental and second harmonic of the frequency of the modulating voltage) of the signal that it receives from the detector (27). The harmonic amplitude ratio is a function of the temperature of the radiator, which can be estimated by reference to a calibration look-up table.

    Abstract: An infrared detection device, e.g. for the 8 to 14 micrometer waveband, comprises a Langmuir-Blodgett or other very thin film (10) having pyroelectric or other temperature-dependent characteristics. At least one detector element having opposite electrical conductors (21 and 22) is formed in the film (10). The film (10) which may have a support layer (15) is mostly free of contact with a mount arrangement (25) which supports the film (10) in a very low thermally-conductive manner. In accordance with the present invention, the film (10) is very thin, but very efficient absorption of the radiation (31) is obtained in the following manner: the facing surface (26) of the mount arrangement (25) is reflective for the radiation (31); the sum of the optical thicknesses of the film (10), of any support layer (15) and (d) of a gap (28) forming the multiple layer detector-element structure along the radiation path to the reflector (26) is approximately one quarter of a selected wavelength (e.g. 9.6 micrometers) in the range to be detected; and the conductors (21 and 22) each comprise a resistive layer providing a sufficient resistance per square (Z1 and Z2, e.g. of twice the characteristic impedance of free space) as to absorb a substantial proportion of the incident radiation (31) and reflected radiation (32) in the wavelength range. Spaced supporting elements (252) below the film (10) can support the film (10) over the reflector (26) with a well-defined small gap (28) and carry an electrical connection to the second conductor(s) (22) below the film.
