Abstract

The measurement accuracy in the photometric quantities measured through photometer head is determined by the value of the spectral mismatch correction factor ( c( S t, S s)), which is defined as a function of spectral power distribution of light sources, besides illuminance responsivity of the photometer head used. This factor is more important when photometric quantities of the light-emitting diode (LED) style optical sources, which radiate within relatively narrow spectral bands as compared with that of other optical sources, are being measured. Variations of the illuminance responsivities of various V( λ)-adopted photometer heads are discussed. High-power-colored LEDs, manufactured by Lumileds Lighting Co., were used as light sources and their relative spectral power distributions (RSPDs) were measured using a spectrometer-based optical setup. Dependences of the c( S t, S s) factors of three types of photometer heads ( f 1′=1.4%, f 1′=0.8% and f 1′=0.5%) with wavelength and influences of the factors on the illuminance responsivities of photometer heads are presented.
