Integrating Spheres, Pulse Stretching & Asymmetry
One of the really useful features of integrating spheres is that they can have multiple detector ports. Thus, more than one detector can be attached to make different measurements in parallel. As for all measuring devices, we need to understand the nature of the device because it can affect the measurement results.
