Radiative Decay Rate and Branching Fractions of MgF

September 8, 2023
Author(s)
Eric Norrgard, Catherine Cooksey, Stephen Eckel, Nickolas Pilgram, Kayla Rodriguez, Howard W. Yoon, Yuly Andrea Chamorro Mena, Lukas Pasteka, Anastasia Borschevsky
Here we report measured and calculated values of radiative decay rates and vibrational branching fractions for the A$^2\Pi$ state of MgF. The decay rate measurements use time-correlated single photon counting with roughly 1\,\% total uncertainty. Branching

ITS10 Conference Digest

April 18, 2023
Author(s)
Christopher W. Meyer, Kathryn Miller, Weston L. Tew, Howard W. Yoon
The 10th International Temperature Symposium (ITS10) was held in Anaheim California on April 3rd to 7th, 2023. More than 180 abstracts were received and accepted and 159 of those were presented at the symposium. This document is a record of the symposium

Characterization and Absolute Calibration of an AERONET-OC Radiometer

April 15, 2021
Author(s)
B. Carol Johnson, Giuseppe Zibordi, Steven W. Brown, Michael Feinholz, Mikhail Sorokin, Ilya Slutsker, John T. Woodward IV, Howard Yoon
The Ocean Color component of the global Aerosol Robotic Network (AERONET-OC) utilizes CE-318 sun photometers modified for above-water radiometry from fixed structures such as oil rigs, lighthouses, and service platforms. Primarily, AERONET-OC measurements

Nonlinear Response of Silicon Solar Cells

January 1, 2019
Author(s)
Behrang H. Hamadani, Andrew M. Shore, Howard W. Yoon, Mark Campanelli
We used an LED-array-based combinatorial flux addition method to explore the wavelength and the intensity-dependence of the spectral responsivity in silicon solar cells. Many types of silicon cells, whether mono- or multi-crystalline type, exhibit notable

Invited Article: Advances in Tunable Laser-based Radiometric Calibration Applications at the National Institute of Standards and Technology, USA

September 26, 2018
Author(s)
John T. Woodward IV, Ping-Shine Shaw, Howard Yoon, Yuqin Zong, Steven W. Brown, Keith R. Lykke
Recent developments at the National Institute of Standards and Technology's facility for Spectral Irradiance and Radiance responsivity Calibrations using Uniform Sources (SIRCUS) are presented. The facility is predicated on the use of broadly tunable

Broadband Radiometric LED Measurements

September 6, 2016
Author(s)
George P. Eppeldauer, P. Yvonne Barnes, Howard W. Yoon, Leonard Hanssen, Vyacheslav B. Podobedov, Robert E. Vest, Uwe Arp, C Cameron Miller
At present, broadband radiometric measurements of LEDs with uniform and low-uncertainty results are not available. Currently, either spectral radiometric measurements or broadband photometric LED measurements are used. The broadband photometric

Advances in Thermometry

January 1, 2016
Author(s)
Michael R. Moldover, Weston L. Tew, Howard W. Yoon
The last 25 years have seen tremendous progress in thermometry in the moderate temperature range (1 K to 1235 K). Various primary thermometers — based on different physics —have uncovered errors in the International Temperature Scale of 1990 and set the

Calibration procedure for UV-365 integrated irradiance measurements

September 8, 2015
Author(s)
George P. Eppeldauer, Thomas C. Larason, Robert E. Vest, Uwe Arp, Howard W. Yoon
Since the CIE standardized rectangular-shape spectral response function for the 320 nm to 400 nm wavelength range can be realized only with large spectral mismatch, the realized UV-A meters have different response functions resulting in large errors in
