ABSTRACT:
An infrared collimator uses a barrel and an infrared energy emitting source mounted at one end of the barrel. A reticle mask over the emission source produces a reticle beam pattern which is concentrated and collimated by a mirror assembly including a convex reflector mounted at a front end of the barrel and a concave concentrator with a central through bore and mounted in the barrel between the emission source and the convex reflector. The collimator produces infrared energy in a coherent, collimated beam pattern for instrument calibration and testing purposes.
