SPECTRUM LIBRARY

This library contains spectral irradiance data of spectra relevant to photovoltaic solar cells. It includes the standard solar spectra, AM0, AM1.5d and AM1.5g, as well as the spectra of flash lamps commonly used in photoconductance experiments.

Define a data range and interval, then export the spectrum to an MS Excel file.

Use the 'Compare' tab to plot multiple spectra.
