Calorimeter for laser energy measurements

A calorimeter enclosed in a constant temperature environment has been constructed to measure the output energy of a conventional mode ruby or neodymium laser. The calorimeter was designed according to the measurement theory and has an estimated uncertainty of +/-2% in the range 5 J to 100 J. The tim...

Description
Summary:A calorimeter enclosed in a constant temperature environment has been constructed to measure the output energy of a conventional mode ruby or neodymium laser. The calorimeter was designed according to the measurement theory and has an estimated uncertainty of +/-2% in the range 5 J to 100 J. The time-temperature curves were analyzed according to the theory with the aid of a computer program.
