Creators

Description

The radiometric calibration program carried out by the vacuum-ultraviolet radiometry group in the Atomic and Plasma Radiation Division of the National Bureau of Standards is presented in detail. The calibration services are first listed, followed by descriptions of the primary standards, which are the hydrogen arc and the blackbody line arc, and the secondary standards, which are the argon mini- and maxi-arcs and the deuterium arc lamp. Next, the calibration methods involving both spectral radiance and irradiance are discussed along with their uncertainties. Finally, the intercomparison of standards as a method of quality control is described
