    Abstract: A calibration system for a measuring device utilizing a photo multiplier tube is provided. The calibration system is intended to provide a stable light source variable over a wide range of intensities which can be used to calibrate the PMT reading using a closed loop feedback circuit. The LED and a photo cell are disposed in a reference block chamber whereby the photo cell is in close proximity disposed perpendicular to the axis of the LED. The LED being dome shaped will direct light energy on to the photo cell, and also peripherally. The PMT is disposed adjacent the LED and at an angle to its longitudinal axis whereby light generated by the PMT simultaneously strikes both the photo cell and the PMT without reflection.

    Abstract: The invention is designed to calibrate a low-level optical power by a substitution method using a pulse generating section in which a light-shielding disk having a sectorial opening, as a component capable of accurate optical attenuation, is rotated in a light beam to generate an intermittent pulse signal having a duty ratio corresponding to the size of the opening, and the pulse signal is averaged to obtain an optical attenuation equal to the duty ratio. More specifically, while an object to be calibrated is set in a given standard state, a first pulse train having a duty ratio d1=Tw.sub.1 /Tf.sub.1 is input to the object, and an average optical power value A of an output from the object is measured and stored. Subsequently, a second pulse train having a duty ratio d2=Tw.sub.2 /Tf.sub.2 is input to the object, and the object is adjusted such that an average optical power value of an output from the object becomes the value A. Proper calibration can be performed by assigning the optical attenuation of the adjusted object to d1/d2.

    Abstract: The present invention concerns a procedure for controlling a radiation source which has been implemented with the aid of light-emitting diodes, or LEDs, from the radiation produced by them being separated the desired wavelength range, of which the intensity is controlled or maintained constant. The radiation source is implemented by means of a LED row (2) formed of semiconductor chips, or LED elements (21, 22, 23, . . . , 26), from the radiation of which is separated a wavelength range (.DELTA..lambda..sub.1, .DELTA..lambda..sub.2, . . . ) depending on the location of the LED element in said arrays with an optical means dispersing the radiation to a spectrum, and the intensity of the radiation in this wavelength range, or of the output radiation, is controlled or maintained constant by observing the intensity thereof and regulating with its aid the current passing through the respective LED element. The wavelength ranges of the output radiation are selected electrically by activating a suitable LED element (21, 22, 23, . . . , 26) in the LED row (2).

    Abstract: An integrating sphere photometer spectral response measurement method and system. The system comprises an integrating sphere photometer and three or more reference light sources having different peak wavelengths. The integrating sphere photometer consists of an integrating sphere (1) and a broadband photodetector (2), and the broadband photodetector (2) is mounted on the sphere wall of the integrating sphere (1). Emergent light of the reference light sources is incident to the integrating sphere (1); the total spectral radiation flux Pi(λ) (i=1, 2, . . . n) received by an integrating sphere photometer system is acquired; the response Mi (i=1, 2, . . . n) of a photometer of mixed light in the integrating sphere (1) is read by means of the broadband photodetector (2); an equation set is established; and the spectral responsivity Srel(λ) of the integrating sphere photometer is obtained by means of numerical solution.
