Many solar simulators spectrums differ and, also, change over a period of time. The need to measure these changes, to ensure the proper spectral response for solar cell testing, is important. Along with proper spectral response, correct intensity output of 1000mW/cm² is required for proper cell measurement.   Reference cells are an integral portion of tuning a solar simulator to a proper output. Various ways to measure these items will be discussed during the webinar.

This free webinar discusses the classification and need of measuring a solar simulator.

Bryan Bond Business Development Manager Konica Minolta Sensing

Konica Minolta Sensing Americas, Inc. is about measuring, matching, reproducing, and communicating Color and Light. It's about capturing texture, shape and color of 3D images. It's about monitoring oxygen saturation.

Over 70% of all the Industrial Light Meters purchased in the world are Konica Minolta. Virtually every major TV and computer manufacturer uses Konica Minolta's Color Analyzers to adjust white balance. Konica Minolta Colorimeters can be found throughout the food chain -- controlling the color from raw ingredients through food processing and production. The safe, compact PULSOX monitors pulse rate and oxygen from infancy through adulthood.

Konica Minolta built the world's first portable Spectrophotometer and the first portable 3D Non-Contact Color Digitizer. We also developed the first fingertip pulse oximeter and the first light meter to be used aboard a space craft (Apollo 8).

Today, Konica Minolta's long term commitment is to continue as the technological leader in optical test and measurement solutions. Universities, Research and Development Laboratories, Food, Plastics, Paint and Coatings, Transportation, Textiles, Medical, Pharmaceutical, Agricultural, Architecture, Archeology, Animation, -- across all industries and market segments, Konica Minolta's instruments are recognized for the highest quality and performance, reliability, innovative design, and ease of use.
