Abstract:
An optical measuring device includes a case, a reflective layer and a light collecting lens module. A measuring chamber and a channel, which is connected to the measuring chamber and is connected to an opening of the case, reside in the case. The reflective layer is disposed onto an inner surface of the measuring chamber. The light collecting lens module is located inside the channel. A light beam emits into the channel of the optical measuring device through an opening, passes through the light collecting lens module and enters the measuring chamber afterward.

A reference detector is positioned at the first area, and the DUT is positioned at the second area. Data acquisition electronics and a processor receive simultaneously generated output signals from the DUT and the reference detector to correct for intensity variation in the spectrally programmable light beam in determining the optical spectral response of the DUT.
Abstract:
In a total luminous flux measurement apparatus according to an embodiment, a total luminous flux emitted by an object is calculated based on a result of measuring illuminances using a measuring unit when providing relative movement between the object and an integrating unit to expose a substantially entire light emitting surface of the object to an inner space of the integrating unit. Specifically, under conditions that the object is disposed to penetrate the integrating unit from one sample hole to the other sample hole, a luminous flux of a portion of the object within the inner space of the integrating unit is measured, then the integrating unit is moved relative to the object, and a luminous flux of a portion accordingly contained in the inner space of the integrating unit is measured.

Abstract:
A measuring device for measuring optical properties of transparent substrates includes a light transmitter and/or light receiver comprising a hollow cylinder having a highly reflective and diffusely dispersive inner surface. The light transmitter comprises a light source arranged in its interior and a light exit opening at a distance from the light source. The light receiver has a light sensor instead of the light source, at a distance from a light entrance opening. The light source and light sensor are arranged at such a distance from the light exit opening and light entrance opening respectively, given a corresponding direction of propagation of the light, that light emitted by the light source or received by the light sensor and multiply reflected in the hollow cylinder emerges as diffuse light from the light exit opening or is incident on the light sensor.

Abstract:
A highly reflective coating painting product, particularly suitable as a coating for integrating spheres, comprises a diffusely reflective product such as, for example, barium sulphate, and an acrylic binder or glue, which are dispersed in a liquid vehicle, preferably constituted by a mixture of water and alcohol. The acrylic binder or glue is a product based on acrylic polymer or copolymer the quantity of which in the coating product is between about 1% and 15%, and preferably between 3% and 4%, by weight, relative to the reflective product. The coating product is applied to a surface in successive layers until a thickness of at least 0.5 mm is reached. The surface coated with the product is then subjected to heating, preferably at about 100° C., for about 1 hour.
