NREL Spectral Standards Development and Broadband Radiometric Calibrations

    Research output: Contribution to conferencePaper

    Abstract

    We describe a final version of revisions to current ASTM reference standard spectral distributions used to evaluate photovoltaic device performance. An NREL-developed graphical user interface for working with the SMARTS2 spectral model has been developed and is being tested. A proposed ASTM reference Ultraviolet (UV) spectra for materials durability is presented. Improvements in broadband outdoorradiometer calibration, characterization, and reporting software reduce uncertainties in broadband radiometer calibrations.
