Split-Stirling, linear-resonant, cryogenic refrigerators for detector cooling [PDF]
For the past decade, military IR systems have preferred to see cryogenic coolers provided as split units; separating the functions of compressor and cold-end for system packaging and vibration isolation reasons.

Split-Stirling-cycle displacer linear-electric drive [PDF]
The retrofit of a 1/4-W split-Stirling cooler with a linear driven on the displacer was achieved and its performance characterized. The objective of this work was to demonstrate that a small linear motor could be designed to meet the existing envelope ...
