3.3. Optical Configuration
The SLS303 is a silicon nitride Globar light source. The Globar is placed inside the housing. The output from the
Globar is then collected and collimated again with an Aluminum Reflector and a ZnSe collimating lens.
Figure 3.4 gives an outline of the optical configuration of the SLS303 Globar light source.
