  • Page 9 Chapter 1 Setup Overview The DH-3PLUS Series of Light Sources for the UV-VIS-NIR (210nm-2400nm, depending upon configuration) is a deuterium and halogen light source that provides known absolute intensity values at several wavelengths, expressed in µW/cm²/nm. Since the spectral intensity of the DH- 3PLUS Series can be traced to an intensity standard traceable to the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST), it is specifically designed for calibrating the absolute spectral response of your system.

    1: Setup Tips When you perform measurements with the calibrated spectrometer system, record a new dark spectrum before each measurement. This minimizes the influence of a shifted dark spectrum. Use a log to monitor the operation time of the light source. Recalibration of the light source after 50 hours of operation is recommended.

  • Page 25: Calibration Basics

    Appendix A Calibration Basics Overview Calibrated systems, independent of the particular calibrated unit, are always traceable to national standards. A calibrated item is comparable to all calibrated items which are calibrated for the same calibrated unit. Each measurement result has an uncertainty, and the level of uncertainty is given either for one single standard deviation (k = 1) or for two standard deviations (k = 2), which is often named as expanded uncertainty.
  • Page 26 A: Calibration Ocean Optics calibrations are done in relation to these international standards. Ocean Optics provides a calibration of the DH-3PLUS plus-CAL on an absolute irradiance scale in µW/nm/cm^2. The sources of uncertainties taken into account are listed below in the example.
