Though the method generally applies to photo-diode array detector based systems, the user should note thatthese types of spectroradiometers often suffer from stray lightproblems and have li

Diode array spec-troradiometers are not recommended for use in the ultravioletrange unless these specific problems are addressed.1.4 The calibration described in this method employs theuse of a standard of spectral irradiance.

Lemons, TLA-Lighting Consultants, Inc., 7 PondSt., Salem, MA 01970.5Available from American National Standards Institute, 11 West 42nd Street,13th Floor, New York, NY 10036G1380625.2.1.1 This can be a fixed or scanning, single or multiple,monochromator employi

35、ng holographic or ruled gratings orprisms or a combination of these dispersive elements. Forimproved performance in the ultraviolet (uv) portion of thespectrum, it is recommended that a scanning double mono-chromator be used to achieve lower stray light levels (see Fig.1). If the monochromator has i

36、nterchangeable slits, it isimportant that the manufacturer document the effective band-width of the monochromator with all possible combinations ofthe slits or that these bandwidths be determined experimen-tally. Configuration of the slits should be such that thebandpass function of the monochromato

37、r is symmetric, pref-erably triangular. The bandwidth should be constant across thewavelength region of interest and maintained between 85 %and 100 % of the measurement wavelength interval. Theprecision of the wavelength positioning of the monochromatorshould be 0.1 nm with an absolute accuracy of b

38、etter than 0.5nm (see Practice E 1341). For improved performance in the uv,it is recommended that high order rejection filters be inserted inthe optical path in the monochromator. The purpose of the highorder rejection filters is to block radiation in the monochroma-tor of unwanted wavelengths that

39、could otherwise overpowerthe signals being measured. The effects of variations intemperature and humidity on the performance of the mono-chromator should be addressed in writing by the manufacturer.5.2.1.2 Avoid mechanical shock and excessive vibration tothe monochromator. This can be facilitated by

40、 the use of avibration isolated lab table. If any optical parts in the mono-chromator are configurable by the user, refer to the manufac-turer precautions about opening the monochromator and han-dling any parts therein.5.2.2 Optical Radiation Detector:5.2.2.1 The optical radiation detector employed

41、by thespectroradiometer should be selected for optimal response overthe wavelength range of interest. It is also important that thedetector is sensitive enough to measure the levels of light thatwill be produced by the monochromator when it is configuredfor the calibration process. The active area o

42、f the detectorshould be evenly illuminated by the exit slit of the monochro-mator. A photomultiplier is typically used because of its highresponsivity and good signal-to-noise ratio. For this reason it isrecommended for use when measuring spectral irradiance inthe uv portion of the spectrum.5.2.2.2

43、The effects of variation in temperature and humidityon the response of the detector should be documented by themanufacturer. Of all components of the spectroradiometer, thedetector is usually the most sensitive to changes in tempera-ture. Some detectors may require cooling in order to maintaina spec

44、ific temperature.Avoid mechanical shock to the detector.If the detector requires an amplifier, any reported limitationsand uncertainties in the detector system must factor in thecontribution of the amplifier.5.2.3 If a diode array based spectroradiometer system isused, note the following recommendat

45、ions.5.2.3.1 The diode array spectroradiometer should employinternal focusing optics in the monochromator.5.2.3.2 When measuring in the ultraviolet, stray light shouldbe controlled by the use of high order rejection filters orinternal baffling, or both.5.2.3.3 The diode array spectroradiometer shoul

46、d not beused for measurements below 300 nm.5.2.4 Input Optics:FIG. 1 Typical Double Grating Monochromator LayoutG1380635.2.4.1 Some means of collecting the incident radiation andguiding it to evenly fill the entrance slit of the monochromatoris required. The input optics also can serve several other

47、important purposes.(1) Cosine ReceptorAn ideal cosine receptor will acceptall radiation from an entire hemisphere and sample radiant fluxaccording to the cosine of the incident angle.(2) DepolarizerThe components in the monochromatorare unfavorably affected by polarized light. A depolarizer canprodu

48、ce more consistent results from light sources of anypolarization type.(3) DiffuserA diffuser can remove hotspots from theincident radiation field and produce even illumination on theentrance slit.5.2.4.2 Reflective input optics are more desirable thantransmissive optics as they perform all three of

49、the functionspreviously discussed and are generally more useful over largerwavelength ranges. It is important to take into account theamount of attenuation caused by the input optics as this willaffect the signal levels at the detector. Ensure that the inputoptics are suitable for the wavelength range of interest. Thepredominant choice of input optics is the integrating sphere.5.3 Wide-band Cut-on and Cut-off Filters:5.3.1 Wideband cut-on and cut-off filters, also known aslong-pass or short-pass filters are needed to establish the levelof stray light in the mono
