Calibration of Radiation Sources and Detectors Over a Broad Range of Measurement of the Energy of Optical Radiation

Resumo

A method of calibration of devices used to measure energy by means of a calorimeter and reference photodiode is described. Experimental results of the calibration are presented. Through the use of the method, energy meters, photodetector devices, and radiation sources may be calibrated over a range more than 10⁸ times the measured radiant energy with the use of time conversion.
