Artifex Engineering manufactures high quality polymer and gold integrating spheres for laser applications. These spheres can be combined with our optical power meters to realize high power measurement units. High power measurements are often performed using thermopile detectors. Thermopiles however, have the disadvantage of reacting very slowly – typical risetimes leading to measurement periods of 1 second at best. The combination of an integrating sphere and a photodiode based power meter opens the possibility of measuring high power fluctuations on a microsecond time scale.

Artifex Engineering offers custom interference filters for use in the UV, VIS and IR. Bandpass filters, notch filters, highpass or lowpass filters are available and can be cut to any shape.
