A method to eliminate the influence of incident light variations in spectral analysis

The intensity of the light source and consistency of the spectrum are the most important factors influencing the accuracy in quantitative spectrometric analysis. An efficient "measuring in layer" method was proposed in this paper to limit the influence of inconsistencies in the intensity and spectrum of the light source. In order to verify the effectiveness of this method, a light source with a variable intensity and spectrum was designed according to Planck's law and Wien's displacement law. Intra-lipid samples with 12 different concentrations were prepared and divided into modeling sets and prediction sets according to different incident lights and solution concentrations. The spectra of each sample were measured with five different light intensities. The experimental results showed that the proposed method was effective in eliminating the influence caused by incident light changes and was more effective than normalized processing.
