Abstract
A technique is presented for realizing spectral irradiance using a large-area, high temperature, uniform, black-body source and filter-radiometers that are calibrated using a High Accuracy Cryogenic Radiometer. The method will be studied by calibrating irradiance lamps with this new technique and comparing the results with those obtained by the method currently employed at the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST). Progress to date and preliminary results are presented. The ultimate goal of the programme is to reduce the measurement uncertainties in the spectral irradiance scales that are made available to industry by calibrating deuterium and tungsten-halogen irradiance lamps.
