Pyrometric temperature controller for million degree per second heating

Abstract
A high‐power proportional temperature controller, using a fast infrared pyrometer, has been developed to change and control the temperature of metallic ribbon samples with microsecond response. The apparatus provides uniform and controlled heating for time‐resolved x‐ray scattering studies of structural phase transitions. When high‐power pulse heating is used, the system is capable of increasing the sample temperature at rates in excess of 106 K/s, without overshoot and with subsequent control to ±1 K at temperatures as low as 650 K.
