High power LED standard light sources for photometric applications

High power LED light sources have been developed as possible new VNIIOFI standard sources for luminous intensity, luminous flux and colour measurements. Stability, repeatability and spatial uniformity of the sources were investigated and demonstrated high accuracy and homogeneity. The paper describes different tests on one of the manufactured sources. In the future, these LED light sources are planned to be used as standard luminous flux sources to transfer the units of luminous intensity and luminous flux from gonio-spectrometer to sphere-spectrometer.
