NORCO, Calif. (May 19, 2011) Naval Surface Warfare Center (NSWC), Corona Division Microwave/Electro-Optic (MS32) Electronics Engineer Daniel King aligns various optical components using visible lasers. Under the Navy Metrology Research and Development Program, NSWC Corona’s E-O Group has developed and patented two calibration standards for support of laser designator and rangefinder test sets. The Laser Transmitter Support Standard (LTSS-300), a calibrated laser energy and pulse width source, is used at variable high power levels for 1064 nm, and the Dual Wavelength Low Level Laser Radiometer (D-ESR), which ensures accurate measurements of pulsed lasers at 1064 nm and 1550 nm wavelengths, keeping ordnance on target and reducing the cost of maintenance for the fleet.
