dc.description.abstractA method of attaching crystalline LiF windows to glass lamps has been developed. The resulting seals have good vacuum properties and can be cooled to cryogenic temperatures while maintaining their vacuum integrity. The technique uses dual, indium O rings to provide a vacuum seal for a LiF window on a resonance lamp. It is appropriate for resonance lamps that produce line spectra. LiF crystals must be cooled to transmit Lyman‐β radiation that can optically pump atomic hydrogen. This indium seal has other applications such as windows for VUV lasers. Details of the construction, assembly, and performance of the seal are described. A discussion of the merits and applications of the window seal is presented.en_US
