A collection of lamp emission spectra for the white LEDs in a Percival plant-cultivation chamber at different nominal dimming settings.

Usage

Percival_LED_dim.mspct

Format

Percival_LED_dim.mspct is a "source_mspct" object containing a collection of 11 "source_spct" objects as members. Members are named.

Details

Percival_LED_dim.mspct contains a collection of "source_spct" objects with spectral emission data for different dimming settings. The diffuser was maintained at the same distance from the LEDs. Thus, the different spectra are comparable and provided expressed in calibrated spectral energy irradiance units.

This growth chamber uses as light source a panel of LEDs above each shelf at a close distance from plants.

The variables in each member spectrum are as follows:

  • w.length (nm)

  • s.e.irrad (\(\mathrm{W\,m^{-2}\,nm^{-1}}\))

Instrument used: Ocean Optics Maya2000 Pro single-monochromator array spectroradiometer with a Bentham cosine corrected input optics. A complex set of corrections and calibration procedure used. The source_spct objects have attributes with additional information on the measurement and data processing. Measurements done by Pedro J. Aphalo. Data acquired and processed using R packages 'ooacquire' and 'photobiology'.
