Far Ultraviolet Detector Standards

A description is given of the NBS program in which special photodiodes for the far ultraviolet spectral region (5–254 nm) are made available as transfer standards. These detectors are calibrated in terms of quantum efficiency (photoelectrons per incident photon) as a function of wavelength. Descript...

Sumario:A description is given of the NBS program in which special photodiodes for the far ultraviolet spectral region (5–254 nm) are made available as transfer standards. These detectors are calibrated in terms of quantum efficiency (photoelectrons per incident photon) as a function of wavelength. Descriptions are also given of the calibration principles, calibration systems, and photodiode types involved in this program. Calibrations reference to the photoionization of rare gases.
