Absolute QE plots
Before reading the specifications tables
All measurements were done without protection glass or IR cut filter. With
protection glass or filters, QE decreases by approximately 10 percent.
The uncertainty in measurement of the QE values is
10 percent. This is mainly
due to uncertainties in the measuring apparatus itself (Ulbricht sphere,
optometer).
Manufacturing tolerance of the sensor increases overall uncertainty.
Sony CCD and CMOS sensors
Sony provides relative response curves in their sensor data sheets. To create the
absolute QE plots shown in this chapter, the relative response was converted to a
normalized QE response and then adjusted as per three measured QE values
(at 448 nm, 529 nm, 632 nm) for color sensors and one measured QE value
(at 529 nm) for monochrome sensors.
ON Semi CCD and CMOS sensors
The curve in the absolute QE plots shown in this chapter is taken from the sensor
manufacturer data sheet. The information was correct at the time of publishing.
Wavelength
The wavelength range in the absolute QE plots reflects the information available in
the sensor manufacturer data sheet at the time of publishing. Many color sensors
are documented by the sensor manufacturer only for wavelengths from 400 nm to
700 nm.
