Wprowadzenie do goniofotometrii

Goniophotometers are precision optical instruments designed to measure the spatial distribution of light emitted from a source. These devices play a critical role in industries where accurate photometric characterization is essential, including LED and OLED manufacturing, display testing, urban lighting design, and scientific research. By capturing luminous intensity, color uniformity, and angular light distribution, goniofotometry enable compliance with international standards such as IEC, CIE, and ANSI, ensuring product performance and regulatory adherence.

This article examines the technical principles, applications, and standards governing goniophotometric testing, with a focus on the LISUN LSG-6000 goniofotometr—a high-precision instrument engineered for advanced photometric analysis.

Fundamentals of Goniophotometric Measurement

Zasada pomiaru

A goniophotometer operates by rotating a light source or detector along one or more axes to capture luminous intensity at varying angles. The LSG-6000 employs a Type C (moving detector, fixed source) configuration, ensuring minimal measurement error due to thermal drift or mechanical instability. The system integrates a high-sensitivity spectrometer and photometer to record spectral power distribution (SPD), chromaticity coordinates (CIE 1931/1976), and correlated color temperature (CCT).

Key measured parameters include:

• Luminous Intensity (cd) – Angular light emission profile.
• Luminous Flux (lm) – Total radiant power adjusted for human eye sensitivity.
• Beam Angle (°) – Angular width where intensity drops to 50% of peak.
• Jednolitość koloru – Spatial consistency of chromaticity.

Optical and Mechanical Design

The LSG-6000 features a dual-axis robotic arm with a rotation range of 0–360° (horizontal) and -180° to +180° (vertical), achieving angular resolution as fine as 0.01°. The system incorporates a high-dynamic-range (HDR) photodetector with a spectral range of 380–780 nm, ensuring accurate measurements for LEDs, laser diodes, and high-intensity discharge (HID) lamps.

To minimize stray light interference, the instrument employs baffle tubes and black anodized surfaces, reducing reflectance to below 0.5%. Calibration traceability is maintained via NIST (USA) or PTB (Germany) certified reference standards.
