Description

A Standard Light Source for Ground Ultraviolet Radiation Calibration

technical field

The utility model relates to a ground radiation calibration instrument for an earth observation remote sensing instrument, in particular to a standard light source for ground ultraviolet radiation calibration.

Background technique

In optical remote sensing, in order to accurately obtain the physical parameter information of the measured object, radiometric calibration of the instrument is an important aspect of optical remote sensing. Especially for on-board optical remote sensing instruments, in order to ensure the long-term stability and measurement accuracy of the instruments, the on-board optical remote sensing instruments are usually required to measure the solar irradiance to monitor the long-term changes of the instruments in the space environment. For this reason, in the development process of on-board optical remote sensing instruments, radiometric calibration of the instruments is an important aspect, that is, the radiance and irradiance of on-board optical remote sensing instruments must be calibrated before the satellite is launched, and the same light source is used for Calibration of radiance and irradiance will help reduce the influence of calibration uncertainty on measurement results.

Calibration of radiance and irradiance usually directly uses the 1000W spectral irradiance standard tungsten halogen lamp as the light source (see reference 1: Fig 2b and Fig 4 of Proc. SPIE, 3870, 354-364, 1999), which The advantage of the first method is that it can better guarantee the absolute calibration error of radiance, but it has the following defects when it is used for irradiance calibration of ultraviolet band instruments:

For instrument irradiance calibration, first, the 1000W spectral irradiance standard tungsten halogen lamp has low radiation intensity in the ultraviolet band, which reduces the signal-to-noise ratio of the instrument in the ultraviolet band irradiance calibration. If the distance between the 1000W spectral irradiance standard tungsten halogen lamp and the instrument to be calibrated is shortened, the energy of the light source can be guaranteed; however, it not only introduces the influence of divergent light beams on the calibration accuracy of the instrument, but also increases the influence of stray light, making the The calibration accuracy of irradiance is difficult to guarantee. The second is that the divergence angle of the calibration light source is much larger than the opening angle of sunlight, and the resulting stray light will bring additional measurement errors; the third is that the distance from the 1000W spectral irradiance standard tungsten halogen lamp to the instrument is difficult to accurately measure.

The main defect of the radiance calibration of the instrument is that the 1000W spectral irradiance standard tungsten halogen lamp has low radiation intensity in the ultraviolet band, which reduces the signal-to-noise ratio of the instrument in the ultraviolet band irradiance calibration; in addition, the 1000W spectral irradiance The distance measurement error between the illuminance standard tungsten halogen lamp and the standard diffuse reflector is still an important source of its measurement error.

Another method for irradiance calibration is to use a reflector to collimate the radiation of the 1000W spectral irradiance standard tungsten halogen lamp (see reference 1: Proc. SPIE, 3870, 354-364, Fig 2a of 1999 ), so that the distance from the light source to the instrument after collimation does not need to be accurately measured. However, due to the large filament size of the 1000W spectral irradiance standard tungsten halogen lamp and the long focal length of the collimating mirror, it can only partially solve the above-mentioned stray light problem, and the problem of low radiation intensity in the ultraviolet band still exists.

Although the short-arc xenon lamp has a strong radiation intensity in the ultraviolet band, it can effectively improve the signal-to-noise ratio of radiation calibration in the ultraviolet band, and is widely used in spectrometers as a light source in the ultraviolet, visible and near-infrared bands, but due to its arc The drift and fluctuation of the point are large, resulting in an unstable light source, so the short-arc xenon lamp cannot be used as a standard light source (see reference 2: HAMAMATSU SUPER-QUITE XENON LAMPS).

Because the ultra-quiet xenon lamp selected by the utility model has the advantages of strong radiation intensity in the ultraviolet band of the short-arc xenon lamp, and the high-durability cathode is used at the same time, the arc point of the lamp has almost no drift and fluctuation during the entire life; the irradiance Small fluctuations, small drift over time, and small radiation source area; after being collimated by the collimating component, the beam emitted is parallel light that simulates the sun's opening angle and the radiation spectrum is close to the solar spectrum.

It not only has high irradiance, but also can effectively improve the signal-to-noise ratio of calibration. When this standard light source When used for radiance calibration, it can not only increase the signal strength in the ultraviolet band; but also does not need to measure the distance from the standard light source to the instrument accurately, reducing the radiance calibration error.

Hereinafter, the utility model will be described in detail in conjunction with the accompanying drawings and embodiments.

Example 1

With reference to Fig. 1, make a standard light source for ground ultraviolet radiation calibration, which is made up of a light source part, a collimation part and a lifting bracket 7. The light source part includes a xenon lamp 1 , a xenon lamp power supply 2 and a lamp chamber 3 , and the collimation part includes a lens 4 , a light shield 5 and a diaphragm 6 . The selection of the xenon lamp 1 needs to consider appropriate light intensity, high stability, small light-emitting area and appropriate volume. The ultra-quiet xenon lamp is an ideal light source to meet this requirement. The utility model selects the SQ type long-life 300W xenon lamp produced by Japan Hamamatsu Company. Its radiation intensity in the ultraviolet band is much greater than the spectral irradiance standard lamp of 1000W. The light-emitting area is about 2mm. The drift and fluctuation of radiation intensity is less than 0.5%, the maximum drift of arc point is less than 0.1mm, and the service life can reach more than 2000 hours. The xenon lamp power supply 2 is used to excite and ignite the xenon lamp 1, and the xenon lamp power supply 2 adopts the supporting power supply of the SQ type long-life 300W xenon lamp of Hamamatsu Company. The lamp chamber 3 is a rectangular box, which is vertically installed on the lifting bracket 7 to prevent the ultraviolet from leaking at will. The xenon lamp 1 is also installed vertically in the lamp chamber 3; The hole is used as a window, and a piece of JGS1 quartz glass is installed on the window. The circular window is located at the height of the arc point of the xenon lamp 1. The diameter of the circular window is φ30mm. Because the window material is JGS1 British glass, the circular window is used for output The radiation of the xenon lamp 1 and the heat of the xenon lamp 1 are blocked; the upper part of the xenon lamp is equipped with an exhaust fan for discharging the heat emitted by the xenon lamp.

The shading cover 5 of the collimation component is a cylinder, and one port of the shading cover 5 communicates with the circular window on the lamp chamber 3 and is installed concentrically. The lens 4 and the diaphragm 6 are arranged in sequence On the radiation light path of the xenon lamp 1 in the shading cover 5, the xenon lamp 1 is at the focus position of the lens 4, and the diaphragm 6 is located at the other side of the lens 4; the collimation component is installed on the lifting bracket 7, The shading cover 5 is installed on the lifting bracket 7 together with the lamp house 3 through an adjustable bracket 8 installed on the lifting bracket 7 . The lens 4 is used to convert the light beam emitted by the xenon lamp 1 into parallel light that meets the requirements of the instrument under test, so it needs to be designed according to the basic characteristics of the xenon lamp and the requirements for collimation of parallel light. The light source area of the SQ long-life 300W xenon lamp is about 2nm, and has a fairly uniform radiation intensity distribution within ±30° of the pitch direction, which is very beneficial for designing a collimated light source system with strong light-gathering ability and small size. When the parallelism of the light beam emitted by the irradiance standard light source is required to be close to the aperture angle of sunlight, the focal length of the lens 4 only needs to be about 250 mm, which is beneficial to the miniaturization of the system. In order to improve the light-gathering ability of the system, the aperture of the collimating part is taken as φ80mm. The maximum opening angle of this optical system at the SQ xenon light source is only ±9°, which meets the requirements of the uniformity of the luminous intensity of the SQ xenon light source. The lens 4 is made of JGS1 quartz material to ensure good transmittance in the ultraviolet band. The collimating part is composed of a lens 4 , a light shield 5 and a diaphragm 6 . Compared with mirrors, the use of lenses has the advantages of stable optical path, easy cleaning and small size. The shading cover 5 is a cylinder with a length of 300mm and a diameter of 106mm, which is used to eliminate the influence of external stray light; The lens 4 and the diaphragm 6 are sequentially arranged on the radiation light path of the xenon lamp 1 inside the hood 5 , the xenon lamp 1 is at the focal point of the lens 4 , and the diaphragm 6 is located at the other side of the lens 4 . The distance from the diaphragm 6 to the lens 4 is 50mm, and the aperture of the light is φ80mm, which is used to select the middle uniform part of the parallel beam. The collimating part and the lamp house 3 are jointly installed on the lifting bracket 7, which is used to adjust the height of the standard light source; and the whole standard light source is fixed as a whole for easy use.

After the standard light source is processed and assembled, the uniformity of the light source is first tested to determine the correctness of the design and assembly and the usable caliber range. The standard light source test should be aged for more than 50 hours before use. The test results of the standard light source show that its uniformity is better than 1%, and the usable diameter is φ80mm, which meets the design requirements. When the standard light source is warmed up for 15 minutes, the drift in 1 hour is less than 0.15%, and the drift in 2 hours is less than 0.3%; the repeatability deviation of multiple startups is less than 0.3%. Compared with the standard lamp with 1000W spectral irradiance, the irradiance at 360nm wavelength increases about 8 times, and the irradiance at 300nm wavelength increases about 30 times.

After the uniformity test of the standard light source is completed and calibrated with the spectral irradiance standard lamp of the American National Bureau of Standards, within the range of 300-360nm, the uncertainty of the standard light source used for ultraviolet radiation calibration is less than 3%.
