Stray Light Testing

SDL’s Stray Light Measurement Facility is used to measure the off-axis rejection performance of space-borne telescopes and has been used to test systems for the Mars Reconnaissance Orbiter, Cassini, Galileo, and TIMED/SABER.  This cleanroom facility can accommodate UV, visible and IR systems with apertures up to 30 inches. The facility is also transportable to customer locations.
