Abstract

We describe a broadband (1 μm−1 mm) synchrotron radiation infrared source, pulsed each 20–180 nseconds and delivering about 1015 photons/sec/1% bandpass into f10 optics. The source size is diffraction limited. This source is thus 100–1000 times brighter than a 2000°K black body, very stable and capable of being used for calibration.
