An aquarium photometer system includes a housing unit, an arm, and a mirror. The housing unit includes a light sensor configured to sense light incident on the light sensor and to convert the incident light to a signal. The housing unit also includes an operational amplifier including a first input node, a second input node, and an output node. The operational amplifier is configured to: receive the signal at the first input node, amplify a difference between the signal at the first input node and a signal at the second input node by a gain factor, and output the amplified signal on the output node. The housing unit also includes a potentiometer connected to the operational amplifier and configured to regulate the amplified signal; and a display connected to the potentiometer and configured to show an intensity of light detected by the light sensor based on the regulated amplified signal. The arm at a first end is connected to the housing unit and configured to move the housing unit around an aquarium case. The mirror is located on a bar and positioned within the aquarium in front of the light sensor and at a focal distance from the light sensor and configured to increase an amount of light incident on the light sensor.

The invention relates to a method and an apparatus for the direct and precise measurement of the power and/or energy of a laser beam, which make a measurement possible even in areas close to the focus of a laser beam, A device is proposed for this purpose that contains a radiation sensor, an expansion device, and a support mount. The radiation sensor has a receiving surface and is configured for the generation of an electrical signal, which is dependent on the power of the laser beam or the energy of the laser beam. The expansion device and the radiation sensor are positioned on the support mount at a distance from one another. The expansion device is configured in such a way as to increase the angle range of the laser beam. The laser beam propagates to the radiation sensor with an increased angle range. A diameter of the laser beam propagated on the receiving surface is greater than a diameter of the laser beam in the area of the expansion device. The receiving surface of the radiation sensor encloses at least 90% of the cross-section surface of the laser beam propagated.
