Photometry and Radiometry Standards Research

MSL's research into light standards consists of three main projects: Photometry, Radiometry, and Solar Energy.

Photometry

Radiometry

• Light and colour measurement
• Calibration of spectral responsivity of silicon diodes and silicon diode trap detectors referenced to a cryogenic radiometer using stablised lasers
• Development of improved trap detectors
• Ultraviolet measurements and instrumentation including solar ultraviolet for ozone, health and environmental purposes.
