Konica Minolta Sensing Singapore Pte Ltd is pleased to announce the availability of “Handbook of LED and SSL Metrology” published by Instrument Systems GmbH (IS), a consolidated subsidiary of Konica Minolta Optics, Inc. (KMOP).
This comprehensive technical handbook by Dr. Günther Leschhorn (Head of Product Management, Instrument Systems) and Dr. Richard Young (former Chief Scientist and current external consultant for Instrument Systems) covers not only the basics of Light-Emitting Diode (LED) and Solid-State Lighting (SSL) metrology, it also provides useful reference work for experienced specialists.
As an introduction, basic terms and definitions in photometry, radiometry and colorimetry are described. Next, the handbook explains the definitions of quantities and details such as the physical properties specific to LEDs and SSL. The later section not only describe test setups and methodology for accurate measurements, it also explains the possible sources of error arising from the interactions between LEDs and measuring instruments. The handbook concludes with the unique requirements of LED testing in a production environment.
Arno Grabher-Meyer, Editor-in-Chief of LED Professional Magazine said: “the handbook stay abreast of changes due to the introduction of LEDs. It explains, in a coherent way, all one needs to know about metrology in general as well as the specifics of SSL metrology. In short, it is a book every lighting specialist dealing with measurement should have on his or her bookshelf.”
