Abstract

Descriptions of a SISAM-interferometer for space application and of the performance of a Michelson type Fourier transform interferometer are given. The benefits and disadvantages of both instruments in different applications are discussed. The usable wavelength range for the SISAM ranges from 1 to 9 μ (extensible up to 100 μ). The Michelson interferometer is designed for the far infrared beyond 25 μ. The obtained spectral resolution is 0.2 cm−1 and 1 cm−1 respectively. Atmospheric effects on high resolution measurements from balloon or aircraft are discussed.
