Integrating Sphere for the Infrared

Not Accessible

Your library or personal account may give you access

Abstract

An integrating sphere of simple construction has been developed for the ir. It has a high efficiency that is not materially affected by aging processes. Experimental measurements of the relative efficiency of this sphere have been made for the wavelength range from 1 μ to 2.6 μ. These data agree with theoretical predictions. It was also predicted that the efficiency of the sphere would increase from 2 μ through to the millimeter wavelength range. The measurements show the ir sphere to have a higher efficiency(2.5 times higher at 2.6 μ) than the conventional MgO-coated integrating sphere.
