Enclosure cover #1 transmission measured in 1064 nm, 156 mW, P polarization and beam size ~ 1 mm
As condition: fully assembled, protective layer removed, tinted- adhesive activated on yellow acrylic on top of each other.
T = 1.2 % in 20 minutes exposure test. This agrees with the test measurement of 6-18-2012
There is a reflected 2-3 cm circular glare that is barely visible on sensor card. It is well below 1 mW level
As we are installing the NPRO with ~350 mW of power we have to address what additional shield should be installed.
The June 2012 test with 1W power burned through of the 3 layer IR coated films in 3-4 hours.
We 'll use Aluminum shields in the high power path till we come up with better solution. |
