| Date: | 1st November 2007 | | Times: | 08.30-1700 | | Venue: | Photonics Cluster (UK), Aston Science Park, Birmingham B7 4BB | | Event: | Light Measurement and the Application of Integrating Spheres & CCD Spectrometers | | Seminar Organisers: | Pro-Lite Technology LLP, Labsphere, Inc and Ocean Optics | | Places: | 100 | The Integrating Sphere – a Versatile Solution in Light Measurements: The integrating sphere is a versatile tool in optical radiation measurements. This seminar will introduce the basics of light measurements and how integrating spheres can simplify complex optical testing. The CCD Spectrometer – a Versatile Solution in Spectral Analysis: The CCD spectrometer is one of the most widely used tools for measuring and interpreting the interaction of light with matter. This seminar will introduce the basics of CCD spectrometry in applications as diverse as medical and biological research, environmental monitoring, life sciences, education and entertainment lighting and display. Who Should Attend: The seminar is intended for scientists and engineers working in the field of light source measurements and testing the optical properties of materials. The event will also be of interest to those involved with calibrating remote sensing systems, or evaluating the performance of electronic imaging equipment and detector arrays such as CCDs and CMOS sensors. Spectroscopic techniques reviewed include reflectance, transmittance and absorption measurements, UV-VIS-NIR spectroscopy, spectroradiometry, Raman spectroscopy, LIBS, colour measurements and fluorescence spectroscopy. | | | What You Will Learn: | | The basic science of light measurements and the optical properties of materials. | | How to define & express the performance of light sources. | | The theory of integrating spheres and diffuse reflectance materials. | | How to specify and use an integrating sphere for measuring light sources, measuring reflectance & transmittance and testing electronic imaging & remote sensing equipment. | | The theory of CCD spectrometers. | | How to specify and use a CCD spectrometer in reflectance, transmittance & absorption measurements, Raman spectroscopy, LIBS, emitted and reflected colour measurements and in fluorescence spectroscopy. |
