This package contains emission spectra for different types of lamps
including LED lamps sold as fully assembled light bulbs or luminaires but
excluding LEDs sold as components requiring separate electronic driver
modules or circuits. Lamps have been measured with an assortment of different
instruments over more than 25 years in our lab or by collaborators. Some of
the lamp types are no longer in production but the data are relevant for the
interpretation of old scientific publications. Data for lamps emitting in the
UV and VIS regions of the spectrum are represented in these data sets. In
addition a set of spectral emission for UVB lamps exposed to different
ambient temperatures is include.
The package contains two collections of spectra for different lamps all of
them measured at air temperatures between 20 C and 25 C and a series of
vectors to be used as indexes to extract different subsets of spectra. These
spectral data are normalized to spectral energy irradiance equal one at
their maximum (strongest emission peak).
Temperature response data is included as a separate collection of
spectra both as a source_mspct object and as a source_spct
object.
A third collection of spectra contains data for the 16 different _colors_ of
light emitted by a household four channel LED bulb.
