Summary

INFRARED TECHNOLOGY RELIES HEAVILY UPON CRYOGENICS BECAUSE DETECTOR SENSITIVITY IS DICTATED BY THE OPERATING TEMPERATURE. HOWEVER, A 4 K REFRIGERATOR COMBINED WITH A GIFFORD-MCMAHON UNIT OPERATING ON A JOULE-THOMSON CYCLE MAKES IT POSSIBLE TO PRODUCE A COMPACT AND RELIABLE INFRARED DETECTOR. THIS TECHNIQUE HAS BEEN APPLIED TO A HETERODYNE RECEIVER AND PHOTOCONDUCTIVE DETECTOR.
