Abstract

An apparatus for converting monochromatic laser radiation to polychromatic Planckian radiation. A spherical chamber specularly integrates a laser beam which is focused through an entrance aperture. A source cavity in the integrating chamber absorbs the laser energy and produces polychromatic Planckian radiation.
