Such materials are readily available, and their use in the tests and measurements describedin this practice is satisfactory for evaluating the performance of spectrophotometers whose spectral slitwidth does not exceed the value for which the intrinsic or certified properties are

These parametersinclude the accuracy of the wavelength and absorbance scales and stray radiant power levels.The accuracy of the wavelength scale in both the UV and visible regions is determined using thesharp absorption bands of a holmium oxide glass or solution filter. Th

In thevisible region (440635 nm) the absorbance accuracy is determined using individually certified neutraldensity glass filters. The use of these reference materials provides a vali
