Spectral Response
The approximate relative response curves of the detectors employed is as shown below. Note that
these are representative curves and do not necessarily correspond to the exact response of the par-
ticular detector in use.
The approximate power at the detector surface is given by:
Peak output voltage (no load)
0.8 A/W x T
R
x % Relative response from graph/100
Peak output voltage (no load)
0.55 A/W x T
