As far as a known "flat" source, which I believe you mean an SPD without a lot of massive spikes, Alan's chart lists a tungsten halogen bulb (or fixtures that use one) and a candle "flame, white wax" as 100 on his scale.Certainly doesn't help the intensity calibration. On that front, I wonder if comparing a few samples of the same wattage tungsten halogen bulb with a known slit width and webcam could give repeatable results?Check out Alan's article, it has quite a bit about spectrometers and the potential pitfalls:In it he states: "Since the mathematics of the TLCI-2012 makes calculations over the visible range from 380nm to 760nm in 5nm steps, it follows that the calibration must cover at least that range in 5nm steps. Typically, the responsivity is not flat, and the resulting compensation to obtain a flat response can emphasise noise, dark-current variations and higher-order spectral content"Food for thought. Tons of interesting stuff in there.-Tom
Great discussion here and I want to remind all that we're just beginning a major rewrite of Spectral Workbench, so if a clear methodology can get us closer to absolute amplitude calibration, that can definitely be a feature in the new version, and we should make the interface for doing that as easy as possible.
Likewise for nonlinear calibration.
Dave I saw your excellent suggestions for SW 2.0 and am working on some boring upgrades before moving on to the good stuff, so hang in there. Thanks!!!
