Abstract:
The spectral responsivity is one of the important parameters of detector. With the development of ultraviolet detect technique accurate measure for the spectral responsivity of ultraviolet detector becomes more and more important. A measure principle which is based on the direct comparison measuring method for relative spectral response measurement of the ultraviolet ICCD is introduced. Based on the scientific-grade spectrometer with ultraviolet responsivity, a measurement facility was built. The relative spectral responsivity curve of the ultraviolet ICCD was obtained. The curve indicates that the spectral-response of UV-ICCD is from 220 to 300 nm and the peak response is near 270 nm, which indicates that the UV-ICCD is solar blind. The analysis of the uncertainty shows that the most largest uncertainty of measurement for relative spectral responsivity of the UV-ICCD is 7.79% and meets the requirement.

IR Spectrum
Transmittance is defined as the ratio of the radiant power passing through a sample to that from the radiation's source. Multiplying the transmittance by 100 gives the percent transmittance (%T), which varies between 100% (no absorption) and 0% (complete...
