Laser power meters are designed to measure laser output power and stability. PLC Optoelectronics offers two core types—thermopile and photodiode meters—both delivering high accuracy and easy operation. These instruments meet real-world demands for laser power measurement and analysis and are widely used in education, research, industry, and medical fields.
Thermopile Power Meter
Working Principle: Based on the thermoelectric effect, the device absorbs laser energy to generate heat, which is transferred to both faces of the thermopile. The resulting temperature difference creates a thermoelectric voltage, which the instrument measures to calculate the corresponding laser power. A broadband absorbing coating ensures accurate capture of lasers across a wide wavelength range.

Integrating Sphere Photodiode Laser Power Meter
Integrating Sphere Photodiode Power Meter: Utilizes a highly scattering integrating sphere to uniformly distribute the source’s light across the inner surface. After multiple reflections and diffusions, the light is captured by a photodetector, and the measured intensity is used to calculate the source’s output power. The sphere’s interior is coated with a high-reflectivity material to minimize light loss and ensure maximum measurement accuracy.
