    IFFERENT AVELENGTHS Scientech Astral calorimeters in general have a flat response to all wavelengths within their specified spectral response. HD and HDX calorimeters are an exception to that rule and are calibrated at a specific wavelength by adjusting the calorimeter’s gain circuitry for that wavelength. The calibration wavelength is recorded in the Operating Parameters section at the front of the manual and on the detector’s serial tag.

    Operation of Astral Calorimeters with a Digital Volt Meter: The calorimeters may be used with any digital volt meter (DVM) capable of reading 5 volts full scale. Connect the output of the calorimeter to the DVM. Select the DC volts mode. Direct the laser beam on to the absorbing surface of the calorimeter.
  • Page 8: Numerical Integration

    Numerical Integration: Finding the area under the curve in figure 7 is the equivalent procedure for determining pulse energy. Choose an appropriate time interval, dt, and perform the summation: E = ∑ W xdt = (dt/S)∑ V The error caused by this procedure is: dE = (dt/S) Σ...
