OPTICAL ACCESSORIES<br />

1800-12S External Integrating Sphere: With the 1800-12S, the<br />

LI-1800 becomes an even more powerful integrating sphere<br />

based system for measurements ranging from total reflectance<br />

and transmittance to color measurements of objects. Whether<br />

you’re measuring leaf spectral properties in the field, or qua<strong>li</strong>ty<br />

control, the 1800-12S provides the portabi<strong>li</strong>ty to meet all your<br />

measurement needs.<br />

For measurements on thin samples, such as leaves, paper, or<br />

cloth, the samples can be clamped onto the sample port for measurement.<br />

For surface reflectance and color measurements of<br />

larger objects, the sample clamp can be removed and the integrating<br />

sphere placed directly on the object’s surface.<br />

Measurements are taken by placing the illuminator in the reference<br />

port and taking a reference scan with the LI-1800. Barium<br />

sulfate (BaSO 4 ) is the reference material and is also used to coat<br />

the walls of the 1800-12S. After a reference scan, the illuminator<br />

is moved to the reflectance or transmittance port so the<br />

source can shine on or through the object (respectively).<br />

The reflectance or transmittance data files stored in the LI-1800<br />

are then divided by the reference data file to produce a file<br />

containing the total (diffuse plus specular) spectral reflectance or<br />

transmittance. This data can also be used to calculate the CIE<br />

chromaticity coordinates of the measured object by choosing<br />

from standard sources A, E, D65 (stored in the LI-1800’s software)<br />

or a user-entered standard.<br />

Typical app<strong>li</strong>cations for the 1800-12S include leaf reflectance,<br />

transmittance and absorptance in crop canopy studies; color<br />

measurements and qua<strong>li</strong>ty control of surface coatings, fabrics,<br />

paper, and textiles. Other materials exhibiting marked directional<br />

reflection differences due to surface texture can also be measured.<br />

Integrating sphere geometry of the 1800-12S minimizes<br />

the effects surface texture can have on the type of geometry used<br />

in the measurement.<br />

1800-06 Telescope/Microscope Receptor: Remote measurements<br />

of spectral radiance, irradiance, luminance, illuminance,<br />

reflectance, or color measurements are all possible using the<br />

1800-06 Telescope-Microscope Receptor.<br />

The 1800-06 consists of a receptor body to which a number of<br />

optional lens accessories can be attached. A wide selection of<br />

objective lenses and three field of view (FOV) apertures offer<br />

flexibi<strong>li</strong>ty in collecting radiant power from submil<strong>li</strong>meter objects<br />

at close range, to large subjects at great distances. 35 mm<br />

camera lenses can also be used for added flexibi<strong>li</strong>ty.<br />

The 1800-06 body has an internal reflex viewing mirror that<br />

permits accurate, parallax-free viewing of the object to be<br />

measured. A six position aperture wheel provides apertures<br />

defining 3 different fields of view (for each lens option), a focusing<br />

screen, a diffuser for viewing highly polarized sources, and a<br />

dark position for checking the dark signal level.<br />

The standard lens mount for the 1800-06 is a lockable s<strong>li</strong>ding<br />

tube which is used to mount and focus the optional lenses. The<br />

standard lens mount can also be replaced by the optional 1800-<br />

06D 35 mm camera lens mount (accepts Canon lenses with<br />

bayonet type mounts).<br />

Two telescopic lens options are available for the 1800-06; the<br />

1800-06A 15 Degree FOV Accessory and the 1800-06B 3<br />

Degree FOV Accessory. These options use quartz optics which<br />

have good radiation transmission characteristics from 310-1100<br />

nm. Both options A and B include an extension tube which<br />

allows closer focusing.<br />

Two lens options are also available for microscopic measurements.<br />

The 1800-06C is a microscope lens mount which accepts<br />

standard American Microscope Objects (AMO). Two objectives<br />

are available from LI-COR, the 1800-06E (7x objective) and the<br />

1800-06F (18x objective). Although any standard AMO objective<br />

will mount to the 1800-06, field diameters of at least 0.8<br />

mm are recommended if you wish to maintain full sensitivity of<br />

the 1800-06.<br />

The second microscope option is the quartz microscope which<br />

uses components from the 1800-06A and 1800-06B telescopic<br />

options to form a quartz microscope lens.<br />
