Integrating-sphere system for measuring the optical properties

The integrating sphere is a cavity sphere coated with a white diffuse reflection material on the inner wall, also known as a photometric sphere, a luminous sphere, etc. One or several window holes are opened on the spherical wall, which are used as light inlet holes and receiving holes for placing light receiving devices. The inner wall of the integrating sphere should be a good spherical surface, and it is usually required that the deviation from the ideal spherical surface should not be greater than 0.2% of the inner diameter. The inner wall of the integrating sphere is coated with an ideal diffuse reflection material, that is, a material with a diffuse reflection coefficient close to 1.  Commonly used materials are magnesium oxide or barium sulfate. After mixing it with a colloidal adhesive, spray it on the inner wall.

The spectral reflectance of the magnesium oxide coating in the visible spectrum is more than 99%. In this way, the light entering the integrating sphere is reflected multiple times by the inner wall coating to form a uniform illuminance on the inner wall. In order to obtain higher measurement accuracy, the opening ratio of the integrating sphere should be as small as possible. The opening ratio is defined as the ratio of the area of the sphere at the opening of the integrating sphere to the area of the entire inner wall of the sphere.

The integrating sphere is also called the luminous sphere, which is a hollow and complete spherical shell. The inner wall is coated with a white diffuse reflection layer, and the points on the inner wall of the integrating sphere are evenly diffused. The illuminance generated by the light source at any point B on the spherical wall is a superposition of the illuminance generated by multiple reflections. The integrating sphere is a high-efficiency device that is mainly used to collect the scattering or emission of light from the sample inside the sphere or outside the sphere and close to a certain window. A small window on the ball allows light to enter and get closer to the detector.

LISUN design the below  size optical integrating sphere works with a Spectroradiometer to do the photometry, colorimetry and radiometry parameters measurement.
