9 November 2010Interference efficiency of thermal infrared imaging Fourier transform spectrometer
Theory about the Thermal Infrared Imaging Fourier Transform Spectrometer has been discussed,
and then we found the Interference efficiency is an important factor related to SNR of Thermal
Infrared Imaging Fourier Transform. The Interference efficiency involved in transverse shear
splitting. After study of this kind of beam splitting, some formulas about Thermal Infrared
Imaging Fourier Transform Spectrometer has been found, then the simulation modes were done.
At the end, Interference efficiency of Imaging Fourier Transform Spectrometer was calculated.
The relationship between interference efficiency and SNR was simply given.
