Technol. 113, 305-309 (2008)] Reflective Optical Chopper Used in NIST High-Power Laser Measurements Volume 113 Number 6 November-December 2008 Xiaoyu Li, Thomas Scott, Chris For the past ten years, NIST has used Key words: attenuator; beamsplitter; Cromer, and Joshua Hadler high-reflectivity, optical choppers as calorimeter; device under test; high-power beamsplitters and attenuators when laser; infrared (IR); laser detector National Institute of Standards calibrating the absolute responsivity and calibration; laser power meter; monitor and Technology, response linearity of detectors used with detector; reflective optical chopper; high-power CW lasers. The chopper-based wedge-shaped transparent material; visible Boulder, CO 80305 technique has several advantages over the aiming laser; ZnSe. use of wedge-shaped transparent materials xiaoyu@ (usually crystals) often used as beam tomrscott@ splitters in this type of measurement cromer@ system.
