Linking Fluorometry to Radiometry with Physical and Chemical Transfer Standards: Instrument Characterization and Traceable Fluorescence Measurements

  • Chapter
  • First Online:
Standardization and Quality Assurance in Fluorescence Measurements I

Part of the book series: Springer Series on Fluorescence ((SS FLUOR,volume 5))

Abstract

Problems associated with the measurement of photoluminescence are briefly reviewed, including relevant instrument parameters affecting these measurements. Procedures for the characterization of relevant instruments are discussed, focusing on spectrofluorometers, and fit-for-purpose methods including suitable standards are recommended. The aim here is to increase the awareness of the importance of reliable instrument characterization and to improve the comparability of measurements of photoluminescence.
