Spectroradiometer Characterization for Colorimetry of LEDs

Author(s)

Abstract

The uncertainties in color measurements of LEDs by spectroradiometers can be much larger than those for traditional broadband sources due to the quasi-monochromatic nature of LED spectra. In this paper, the uncertainties in chromaticity of LEDS due to bandpass, scanning intervals, and wavelength errors, are analyzed by simulation. Based on the analysis, a spectroradiometer for colorimetry of LEDs has been designed and built at NIST and characterized for uncertainties in measured chromaticity coordinates and other color quantities.
