It is an instrument specifically used for measuring the strength of optical signals. It converts optical signals into electrical signals through a photoelectric sensor and then displays the power value in units of decibels-milliwatts (dBm) or watts (W). Other general purpose light power measuring devices are usually called radiometers, photometers, laser power. An optical power meter measures the photon energy in the form of current or voltage from an optical detector such as a semiconductor, a thermopile, or a pyroelectric detector. It provides an expert-curated supplier directory, buyer-focused technical background information, and structured selection criteria to support professional procurement decisions.
