| Description | Journal: Measurement Science and Technology This paper presents a method to accurately determine the responsivity non-uniformity of the pixels of an infrared camera. Mandatory for the use of infrared cameras for measurements of radiance temperatures with small uncertainties is the knowledge of this responsivity non-uniformity and the resulting ability to correct the responsivity non-uniformity of the measured image. Infrared cameras are optically and electronically more complex than radiation thermometers. For the calibration of infrared cameras a large-area source with a known radiance distribution is required. Practical implementations of such large-area sources are plate radiators, which generally have a non-homogeneous distribution of the radiance and of the radiance temperature over their surface. The determination of the non-uniformity of the radiance temperature of a plate radiator is mandatory for the accurate calibration of infrared cameras, i.e. for the determination and adequate consideration of the responsivity non-uniformity of all pixels of an infrared camera. |
