Abstract
Standard Reference Materials (SRMs) 2514 and 2515 are optical-fiber-coupled wavelength references based on the fundamental absorption lines of carbon monoxide 12C16O and 13C16O in the 1560 nm to 1630 nm region. The center wavelengths of 41 lines of the 3Ņ rotational-vibrational band of carbon monoxide 12C16O are certified for SRM 2514 and the center wavelengths of 41 lines in the corresponding band of 13C16O are certified for SRM 2515. These lines are certified with expanded uncertainties (2ς) ranging from 0.4 to 0.7 pm. This document describes SRMs 2514 and 2515 and details the uncertainty analysis.
