How much light is scattering off of that? Most objects scatter light in all directions. How can we …
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.

The world remains in a continuing state of uncertainty due to the new COVID-19 coronavirus. Face masks and disinfectants are selling very well. Disinfection with UV light could offer a way of disinfecting larger areas without the use of chemical disinfectants, especially in hospitals where patients are being treated.
As every year – Ophir’s new 2020 catalog for laser power measurement covers a wide range of laser …
Integrating spheres have been around for decades, many decades. They are the go to solution for measuring divergent …
Integrating Spheres for Lighting and Laser Diode Measurement

An integrating sphere is a powerful tool to capture all the light of a widely divergent beam. The sphere scatters light uniformly over its whole interior.
Going to Munich for LASER World of PHOTONICS 2015?
We’ll be showing several new products in Munich, not to mention quite a few of our classics.
But…
You’re going to be busy. You can’t (and shouldn’t) go to every booth. So I’m going to very clear. Our booth is not for everyone. However,
With high power lasers, there’s always a safety concern for equipment and people nearby.
(Of course, I’m not qualified to give a detailed analysis of what needs to be taken into account for laser safety. For that, you should consult a laser safety officer.)
I want to specifically ask whether there’s an issue of laser light reflecting off power measuring equipment.
You’re so upset you could spit.
You just got a new laser for your factory floor, but it just won’t make parts that pass inspection.
Photometric Measurements: Measuring Illuminance with the PD300-CIE
May 20, 2015 - by Mark Slutzki
FEATURED
In applications where a human observer is involved (for example illumination applications), it is often important to measure using the eye-response-matched Photometric system of units. Ophir’s PD300-CIE is a photometric sensor, and is designed to measure illuminance (in units of Lux or Foot-Candles).
