Guidelines are given forthe selection of specimens to obtain the highest measurementprecision. Parameters are identified which
35、 must be specifiedwhen bispectral photometric measurements are required inspecific test methods or other documents.4.2 In this practice, the measuring instrument, abispectrometer, is equipped with two separate monochroma-tors. The first, the irradiation monochromator, irradiates thespecimen with mon
36、ochromatic light. The second, the viewingmonochromator, analyzes the radiation leaving the specimen.A two-dimensional array of bispectral photometric values isobtained by setting the irradiation monochromator at a series offixed wavelengths () in the excitation band of the specimen,and for each , us
37、ing the viewing monochromator to recordreadings for each wavelength () in the specimens emissionrange. The resulting array, once properly corrected, is known asthe Donaldson matrix (2), and the value of each element (,)of this array is the Donaldson radiance factor (D(,).4.3 While recognizing the CI
38、E recommendation (in CIE 15)of numerical integration at 1 nm intervals as the basicdefinition, this practice is limited in scope to measurements andcalculations using spectral intervals greater than or equal to 5nm.5. Significance and Use5.1 The bispectral or two-monochromator method is thedefinitiv
39、e method for the determination of the general(illuminant-independent) radiation-transfer properties of fluo-rescent specimens (2). The Donaldson radiance factor is aninstrument- and illuminant-independent photometric propertyof the specimen, and can be used to calculate its color for anydesired illu
40、minant and observer. The advantage of this methodis that it provides a comprehensive characterization of thespecimens radiation-transfer properties, without the inaccura-cies associated with source simulation and various methods ofapproximation.5.2 This practice provides a procedure for selecting th
41、eoperating parameters of bispectrometers used for providingdata of the desired precision. It also provides for instrumentcalibration by means of material standards, and for selection ofsuitable specimens for obtaining precision in the measure-ments.6. Requirements for Bispectral Photometry6.1 When d

43、 geometry, whether annular,circumferential, or uniplanar measurement conditions are to beused, and the number and angular distribution of any multiplebeams.6.1.2.2 For hemispherical geometry, whether total or diffusemeasurement conditions (specular component of reflectanceincluded or excluded) are t

47、utput over the wavelength range usedfor specimen irradiation.7.2.2 The dispersive element, which provides energy innarrow wavelength bands across the UV and visible spectralrange, may be a prism, a grating, or one of various forms ofinterference filters or wedges. The element should conform tothe fo
48、llowing requirements:7.2.2.1 When highest measurement accuracy is required, thewavelength range should extend from 300-830 nm; otherwisethe range from 300 to 780 nm should suffice. For specimensconfirmed to be non-fluorescent or those exhibiting onlyvisible-activated fluorescence (negligible excitat
49、ion below 380nm), the wavelength range from 380 to 780 can be used. Eachuser must decide whether the loss of accuracy in the measure-ments is negligibly small for the purpose for which data areobtained.7.2.2.2 The wavelength interval should be 5 or 10 nm. Useof wider wavelength intervals, such as 20 nm, may result inreduced accuracy. Each user must decide whether the loss ofaccuracy in the measurements is negligibly small for thepurpose for which data are obtained.7.2
