MSDS Aircraft Non Flammable Ne 20 Ring Laser Gyros CAS 7440-59-7
Description:
Neon has three stable isotopes, Ne-20, Ne-21, Ne-22. Ne-20 and Ne-22 are the principle isotopes found in Helium-Neon laser applications. One of a number of critical applications is the use of ring lasers found in commercial, space and military guidance, navigation and control systems.
The Ring Laser Gyros (RLG) can be used as the stable elements (for one degree of freedomeach) in an inertial guidance system. The advantage of using a RLG is that there are no moving parts. Compared to the conventional spinning gyro, this means there is no friction, which in turn means there will be no inherent drift terms. Additionally, the entire unit is compact, lightweight and virtually indestructible, meaning it can be used in aircraft.
