Abstract
The design and fabrication of an integrating sphere to provide a uniform illumination source was the basis for a student laboratory project. The design process emphasizes several important concepts in radiometry. An integrating sphere is a useful component for other student laboratory experiments, and the design presented is cost-effective when compared with commercially available products
