Product Description:
The 81002FF integrating ball used in this way has an outer diameter of 80mm and is lined with a highly diffused material. The basic idea of an integrating sphere is that light enters the sphere and diffuses to a uniform power density on the inner surface. A small portion of the total power flows out of the sphere through a small aperture to reach the detector in the optical head.
Features:
The integrating sphere has a sphere with an outer diameter of 80 mm, which is moderate in size and easy to operate and integrate.
A highly diffused lining material is used inside the sphere to ensure the uniform distribution of light on the surface of the sphere to achieve the uniformity of power density.
The Agilent 81002FF Integrating ball is capable of handling up to 40 dBm (i.e. 10 Watts) for outstanding high power handling.
The sphere design allows high-power light to easily diffuse and dissipate within the sphere, avoiding measurement errors caused by excessive light.
The integrating sphere creates a attenuation of about 41 dB, helping to reduce the light intensity and making it more suitable for measurement.
It should be noted that if a slightly larger aperture optical head is used, the attenuation may be reduced to about 31 dB.
