Initial work was concerned with determining whether the radiation emitted from a laser source could be sufficiently collimated to provide a suitable source for a nephelometer-type instrument. It was necessary to develop a standard scatterer that could be used to evaluate the performance of a nephelometer. The possible use of a gallium arsenide diode as a radiation source also was investigated. The first of these utilized a single lens to focus the light scattered from a target onto a ring detector. The second configuration used reflecting and refracting axicons as optical-system elements. The work performed in each of these areas is described.
