Abstract We report realization of scales for optical power of lasers and spectral responsivity of laser power detectors based on a predictable quantum efficient detector (PQED) over the spectral range of 400 nm–800 nm. The PQED is characterized and used to measure optical power of a laser that is further used in calibration of the responsivities of a working standard trap detector at four distinct laser lines, with an expanded uncertainty of about 0.05%. We present a comparison of responsivities calibrated against the PQED at Aalto and the cryogenic radiometer at RISE, Sweden. The measurement results support the concept that the PQED can be used as a primary standard of optical power.

To calibrate laser power and energy meters, the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) uses several detector-based realizations of the scale for optical radiant flux; these realizations are appropriate for specific laser power/energy ranges and optical coupling configurations. Calibrations from 1 μW to 2 W are currently based upon calorimeters. Validation by comparisons against other primary representations of the optical watt over the last two decades suggests the instruments operate well within their typical reported uncertainty level of 0.86 % with 95 % confidence. The dominant uncertainty contribution in the instrument is attributable to light scattered by the legacy window, which was not previously recognized. The inherent electro-optical inequivalence in the calorimeter’s response was reassessed by thermal modeling to be 0.03 %. The principal contributions to the overall inequivalence were corrected, yielding a shift in scale representation under 0.2 % for typical calibrations. With updates in several uncertainty contributions resulting from this reassessment, the resulting combined expanded uncertainty (k = 2) is 0.84 %, which is essentially unchanged from the previous result provided to calibration customers.

An improved monochromatic radiant source with spectral bandwidth of 4 nm based on supercontinuum laser and a double monochromator was included in absolute cryogenic radiometer-based facility to improve the accuracy of spectral responsivity measurement in the range 0.9–1.6 μm. The developed feedback system ensures stabilization of monochromatic radiant power with standard deviation up to 0.025 %. Radiant power that proceeds detector under test or absolute cryogenic radiometer varies from 0.1 to 1.5 mW in dependence of wavelength. The spectral power distribution of its monochromatic source for various operating mode is presented.

The possibility of using bolometric converters of microwave power from the State primary standard of the unit of power of electromagnetic waves in waveguide and coaxial paths GET 167-2017, which has a frequency range from 37,5 to 78,33 GHz, in an extended frequency range up to 220 GHz, is shown. Studies of semiconductor bolometric converters of microwave power in an extended frequency range have confirmed good agreement and smooth frequency characteristics of the effective efficiency factor of the converters. Based on the research results, the State working standard of the unit of power of electromagnetic waves of 0,1–10 mW in the frequency range from 37,5 to 220 GHz 3.1.ZZT.0288.2018 was approved. The technical characteristics of the working standard of the unit of power of electromagnetic oscillations in an extended frequency range from 37,5 to 220 GHz are given.

This paper is devoted to the analysis of the influence of thermal pads on electric, optical, and thermal parameters of power LEDs. Measurements of parameters, such as thermal resistance, optical efficiency, and optical power, were performed for selected types of power LEDs operating with a thermal pad and without it at different values of the diode forward current and temperature of the cold plate. First, the measurement set-up used in the paper is described in detail. Then, the measurement results obtained for both considered manners of power LED assembly are compared. Some characteristics that illustrate the influence of forward current and temperature of the cold plate on electric, thermal, and optical properties of the tested devices are presented and discussed. It is shown that the use of the thermal pad makes it possible to achieve more advantageous values of operating parameters of the considered semiconductor devices at lower values of their junction temperature, which guarantees an increase in their lifetime.

Estimation of uncertainty in odour measurement is essential to the interpretation of the measurement results. The fundamental procedure for the estimation of measurement uncertainty comprises the specification of the measurement process, expression of the measurement model and all influences, evaluation of the standard uncertainty of each component, calculation of the combined standard uncertainty, determination of a coverage factor, calculation of the expanded uncertainty and reporting. Collaborative study such as interlaboratory comparison of olfactometry yields performance indicators of the measurement method including repeatability and reproducibility. Therefore, the use of collaborative test results for measurement uncertainty estimation according to ISO/TS 21748 and ISO 20988 is effective and reasonable. Measurement uncertainty of the triangular odour bag method was estimated using interlaboratory comparison data from 2003 to 2007 on the basis of the simplest model of statistical analysis, and the expanded uncertainty of odour index ranged between 3.1 and 6.7. On the basis of the establishment of the estimation procedure for uncertainty, a coherent interpretation method for the measurement results will be proposed and more effective and practical quality control of olfactometry will be available.

Abstract In case the primary realization of the spectral responsivity scale is not conducted at all target wavelengths but at only a small part of them, one needs to extrapolate values at the specific wavelengths to an extended range. In this work, we present a fully experimental procedure to extrapolate a single value of spectral responsivity at 633 nm into the whole working wavelength range (250 – 1100) nm of Si photodiodes. It is based on spectral responsivity comparison between a Si trap detector and a low-NEP pyroelectric detector of nearly flat spectral response. For this purpose, we developed a setup specialized to compare a Si-trap detector of dc-current output with a pyroelectric detector of ac-voltage output by using a modulated probing light source and a monitoring technique. To keep the probing light chopped even for the dc-photocurrent readout, we adopted a low chopping frequency of 4 Hz and a triggered readout for the Si-trap detector, which leads to a speedy comparison between the Si-trap detector and the pyroelectric detector. For the reference pyroelectric detector, we characterized the spectral absorptivity of the black-coating and the nonlinearity of the lock-in amplifier readout. Compiling all the required information, the spectral responsivity of the Si trap detector could be measured with the minimum uncertainty of 0.3 % (k = 2), which was validated by comparing with that of our previous method based on a numerical extrapolation.
