As every year – Ophir’s new 2022 catalog for laser measurement covers a wide range of laser power and energy sensors, meters and laser beam profiling systems for medical, industrial, defense, and research applications. The first section of the catalog is devoted to laser power meters, which consist of sensors (detectors) and meters (displays). Ophir online tools…
An integrating sphere collects electromagnetic radiation from a source, usually external to the optical device, for flux measurement or optical attenuation.
We’ve recently introduced you to a new member that joined the Ophir’s irradiance and dosage sensor family – PD300RM-UVA and its important new features compared to its older brothers. Now we’re happy to share the following video that’ll show you exactly what the Ophir PD300RM-UVA does, and how to use it.

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.

Integrating spheres have been around for decades, many decades. They are the go to solution for measuring divergent light sources. After such a long history, what could be new in integrating spheres? Well, new applications often demand new refinements in veteran technology and integrating spheres are no different. VCSELs, LEDs and other present day light sources…
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.
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.
