Abstract :
A spectral response calibration system was developed using CW wavelength-tunable lasers as the monochromatic light source and an integrating sphere to provide a large, spatially uniform and depolarized light source. The basic characteristics of this system were evaluated. This system enabled us to calibrate the spectral response of an optical sensor with a large aperture.
