Abstract

In a reflectance measuring instrument, an integrating sphere is provided to illuminate the sample of which the reflectance is to be measured. A first fiber optic cable is provided to receive a light beam reflected by the sample and a second fiber optic cable is positioned to receive a light beam reflected from the wall of the integrating sphere. The transmitting ends of the fiber optic cables are mounted in a pivoted plate to selectively position the transmitting ends to emit light into the entrance slit of a monochromator.
