The NIST Spectroradiometry Short Course is offered every 2 years and covers radiometry fundamentals, radiometric properties of sources and detectors, spectroradiometric techniques, reflectance properties of materials, the handling and determination of measurement uncertainties, an overview of calibration services, and the implementation of the quality system at NIST. Participants will gain experience in spectroradiometric measurement and calibration techniques using lamps, integrating spheres, spectrometers, and filter radiometers.
