photobiologyLamps: Spectral Irradiance Data for Lamps
Description
Spectral emission data for some frequently used lamps including bulbs and flashlights based on led emitting diodes (LEDs) but excluding LEDs available as electronic components. Original spectral irradiance data for incandescent-, LED- and discharge lamps are included. They are complemented by data on the effect of temperature on the emission by fluorescent tubes. Part of the 'r4photobiology' suite, Aphalo P. J. (2015) doi:10.19232/uv4pb.2015.1.14.
Details
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 included in the main data set.
The main data set lamps.mspct contains spectra for different lamps all
of them measured at air temperatures between 20 C and 25 C complemented by
vectors of names to be used as indexes to extract different subsets of
spectra. These spectral data are normalized to spectral energy irradiance
equal to one at their maximum (strongest emission peak).
In addition a set of spectral emission for UVB lamps exposed to different
ambient temperatures and a data set from a four channels LED bulb are
included as two additional collections of spectra. Temperature response data
are included both as a source_mspct object and as a source_spct
object (to ensure backwards compatibility).
The third collection of spectra contains data for the 16 different _colors_ of light emitted by a household four channel LED bulb.
Warning!
None of the spectral data included in this package are based on supplier's specifications and are only provided for information. The exact emission spectrum depends to some extent on testing conditions, but more importantly among individual lamps. It is not uncommon for suppliers to revise specifications during the lifetime of a product type without changing the product denomination. There can be also some variation from batch to batch. It is important to make sure that the type considered exactly matches. Frequently variations of a lamp type, with type denomination differing in a single letter or number, have quite different spectral characteristics. In other words, the data provided here are not a substitute for actual measurements of the radiation emission spectrum of the lamps actually used in a given piece of scientific research. For less demanding situations the data are in most cases reliable enough but perfect agreement with measurements on other lamps of the same exact type should not be expected. This is specially true for those data measured more than a few years ago when compared to lamps being currently sold under the same type denomination.

Spectra acquired with Bentham spectrometer
Description
Spectra measured with a Bentham spectroradiometer. Datasets contain wavelengths at a 0.5 nm interval and corresponding values for spectral emittance from different lamps. As absolute values are not meaningful because measuring distances are in most cases unknown data have been normalized to one at the wavelength of maximum energy irradiance.

Generic, shop branded or distributor branded
We group under this category shop-branded or generic (no-brand) lamps that usually have specifications with limited details. These lamps are unlikely to remain consistent from batch to batch or have limited availability.
Note
Some of the lamps are from resellers' brands, usually obscure ones, and others are from well-known brands. Some of the brands have changed ownership through take-overs and merges. When known the vintage is indicated in the comment field of each spectrum. Multiple brands may also belong to the same company.

Details
ledsavers.mspct contains a collection of 16 "source_spct"
objects with spectral emission data for each of the colors obtainable from
the lamp. All colors were measured at maximum power output although the lamp
supports dimming. The lamp was maintained at the same distance from the
input optics so the different spectra are comparable and provided expressed
in calibrated units.
The variables in each member spectrum are as follows:
-
w.length (nm)
s.e.irrad (relative energy based units)

An object of class source_mspct (inherits from generic_mspct, list) with 7 rows and 1 columns.
Details
Absolute values are comparable among the different temperatures. The lamps and the cosine diffuser were located inside a Conviron growth chamber. The measurements were done with a recently calibrated Macam double-monochromator spectroradiometer located outside the chamber and maintained at constant room temperature of 22 C. After each change in the temperature controller set-point enough time was allowed after the temperature had stabilized inside the chamber, for the output of the lamps to also become stable.
qp_uvb313_temp.spct contains data for different
temperatures in a "tidy" long form with a factor indicating the temperature
at which the lamp was during measurement.
qp_uvb313_temp.mspct
contains the same data as a collection of spectra stored in a
"source_mspct" object, with member "source_spct" objects
named minus5C, plus00C, plus05C, plus10C, plus20C, plus30C, and plus35C.
Note
Instrument used: Macam SR-9010-PC scanning double monochromator spectroradiometer with a cosine corrected input optics. Recently calibrated. The lamps were driven by a high frequency electronic ballast.
