ABSTRACT:
The present invention is directed to a method and apparatus for reducing temperature variation in an infrared detector. The apparatus comprises a coldfinger for receiving thermal energy from an infrared detector. A thermal damper is also provided for conducting thermal energy from said detector to the coldfinger by one or more thermally conductive paths. A detector mount is used for combining the thermal energy flowing through the paths, thereby reducing the temperature variation in the detector.
