What is ISO 19962 - Spectroscopic measurement methods for integrated scattering about?
ISO 19962 is an international standard on Optics and photonics. ISO 19962 specifies procedures for determining the spectroscopic forward scattering characteristics of coated and uncoated optical surfaces over a specified wavelength range between 350 nm and 850 nm using a double-beam spectrophotometer with an integrating sphere. ISO 19962 is to applicable spectroscopic forward scattering measurements with collection angles larger than 2,7 degrees.
ISO 19962 is also applicable to the forward scattering properties at a single wavelength.
Who is ISO 19962 - Spectroscopic measurement methods for integrated scattering for?
ISO 19962 on spectroscopic measurement methods for integrated scattering by plane-parallel optical elements is relevant to:
- Manufacturers of optical instruments
- Manufacturers of spectrophotometer and micro-spectrometer
- Spectroscopists
Why should you use ISO 19962 - Spectroscopic measurement methods for integrated scattering?
Light scattering by optical components reduces the efficiency of optical systems and degrades the quality of image formation.
ISO 19962 proposes a simple spectroscopic method for probing minute scattered radiation using a conventional double-beam spectrophotometer (hereafter, double-beam spectrophotometer) that is widely used for evaluating optical components.
In ISO 19962, a simple and handy way to implement forward scattering measurements is realized. The measurement method described has an easy implementation and is cost-effective.
Overall, ISO 19962 is helpful as it assists the user on the minimum scattering collection angle which is determined by the setup of the double-beam spectrophotometer and the geometry of the integrating sphere, in particular the opening angle of the exit port. ISO 19962 provides you with comprehensive information useful throughout the process of determining the spectroscopic.
