Approximation of a melting plateau of large area HTFP cells used for spectral irradiance realization.

This paper adopted an approximation of a melting plateau to solve the problem that temperature data cannot be monitored continuously when measuring the spectral irradiance of a large area tungsten carbide-carbon high-temperature fixed-point blackbody at each measured wavelength. Tests with fully measured curves showed that the method has a rather small deviation from the measured data of 0.017 K maximum, which corresponds to the spectral irradiance deviation of 0.

A method for spectral irradiance measurement based on a large area WC-C fixed point blackbody.

We have proposed a novel method for the spectral irradiance measurement of the standard lamp. The measurement has been realized by using national primary scale based on a large area WC-C fixed point blackbody for the first time. The wavelength range is from 450 nm to 1000 nm.

Thermodynamic temperature assignment to the point of inflection of the melting curve of high-temperature fixed points.

The thermodynamic temperature of the point of inflection of the melting transition of Re-C, Pt-C and Co-C eutectics has been determined to be 2747.84 ± 0.35 K, 2011.

Precision blackbody sources for radiometric standards.

The precision blackbody sources developed at the All-Russian Institute for Optical and Physical Measurements (Moscow, Russia) and their characteristics are analyzed. The precision high-temperature graphite blackbody BB22p, large-area high-temperature pyrolytic graphite blackbody BB3200pg, middle-temperature graphite blackbody BB2000, low-temperature blackbody BB300, and gallium fixed-point blackbody BB29gl and their characteristics are described.
