Detector measures power in 50 to 30,000 GHz radiation band
Broadband power detector assembly measures electromagnetic radiation in the 50 to 30,000 GHz band. The assembly includes a matched pair of detectors which incorporate thin-film radiation absorbers. The detector is effective with either coherent or incoherent radiation
High-sensitivity receiver for CO2 laser communications
Wideband heterodyne receiver provides detection and demodulation of incident frequency modulated laser signal; search and acquisition circuitry to align two stations; tracking circuitry to maintain spatial alignment; and laser frequency monitor to frequency lock the transmit and local oscillator lasers
