1 Emmett J. Ientilucci, Ph.D. Digital Imaging and Remote Sensing Laboratory Rochester Institute of Technology March 7, 007 Radiometry HW Problems 1 Problem 1. Your night light has a radiant flux of 10 watts, what is the irradiance on your radiometry notes which fell meters from the light when you fell asleep (assuming your notes were perpendicular to the night light)? We don t know the area of the notes but can at least propagate the flux out to the surface of a sphere of radius of m (using point source approximations). or E sphere Φ s A 10 W 4πr 10 W 4π( m) [W m ] E I s r Φ s/ Ω r Φ s Ω r 10 W 4π( m) [W m ] Problem. Given the same 10 watt source above, what is the flux on your notes if you are using a standard sheet of paper measuring 8.5 in by 11 in and are meters away (still perpendicular to the night light)? Additionally, what is the flux if the notes are tilted 5 degrees? Here, we subtend a section of the sphere with the area of the paper. At this point the irradiance onto the paper, E paper is the same as the 1 Submit suggestions and typos to emmett@cis.rit.edu 1

E paper Φ paper A paper Φ paper E sphere A paper (0.199 W m )((8.5 in)(11 in)) Φ paper (0.199 W m )( m ) Φ paper 1 mw If the notes are tilted 5 degrees, we have to account for the projected area. In many cases the angle is zero (i.e., paper not tilted) and therefore cos θ 1. Φ tilt Φ paper cos θ (0.01 W ) cos mw Problem 3. The camera you are using to record the CIS fall picnic has a detector with an area of cm and a responsivity of V W 1. After all of the optics, the detector receives an irradiance of W m. What is the output of the cell? β S Φ S β Φ β E A S ( V W 1 )( W m )( E 4 m ) S [V ] 0.8 mv Problem 4. Your headlights have a radiant intensity of 60 W sr 1. Determine the irradiance on a sign meters away. We can use the inverse square law as long as our distance from the source is at least ten times greater than the diameter of the source

3 (i.e., dist dia >> 10). For this problem, the diameter of the source can be no larger than dia << dist 10 << m 0 cm 10 which is probably a little larger than a typical headlight, though pretty close. We certainly wouldn t want to use the inverse square law if we were less than meters from the source. The solution is therefore, E I 60 W sr 1 r ( m) 15 [W m ] Problem 5. If I have a lamp from the hardware store whose efficiency is 50% and is drawing amps at 60 volts, what will the flux on my radiometry notes be meters away (assuming 8.5 in by 11 in paper)? The relation for efficiency is used to compute the light flux from the electrical flux. ε Φ out P in Φ out P in ε i v ε E Φ paper Φ out A sphere Φ out A sphere A paper Φ paper i v ε 4πr (A paper) Φ paper ( A)(60 V )(0.50) 4π( m) ( m ) 7 mw Problem 6. Given a source with 30% efficiency, drawing 0. amps from a 9 volt source, how far away from the source will the observer measure an irradiance of 3

4 0.0 W m? The relation for efficiency is used to compute the light flux from the electrical flux. ε Φ out P in Φ out P in ε i v ε E Φ out A Φ out 4πr ( ) 1/ ( Φout i v ε r 4πE 4πE ) 1/ r ( ) (0.A)(9V )(0.30) 1/ 4π(0.0 W m 1.46 m ) Problem 7. A sensor has a responsivity of amps per watt, and an observed noise level of 100 milliamps. If the irradiance on a 1 cm detector changes by 50 W m, will the sensor record the change? We need to find out what is the signal (in amps) produced by the change in irradiance. Then we compare this to the noise value stated to see which is larger. β S Φ S β Φ need to solve for the flux E Φ A Φ E A after substitution and integrating out the partials we get S β E A ( AW 1 )(50 W m )( m ) 10 ma Turns out, the noise is larger. The sensor will not record the change. 4

5 Problem 8. If you have a sensor with a responsivity of V W 1, an output of 5 volts, is 1 cm on a side, and is 10 cm from a source, determine the radiant intensity of the source. β S Φ Φ S β I Φ Ω I S\β A\r r S A β (10 cm) (5 V ) (1 cm )( V W 1 ) 50 [W sr 1 ] Problem 9. If you have a source at a temperature of 1000 K, and an emissivity of 0.93, what is the radiant excitance of the source? ε M(T ) M bb (T ) M(T ) M bb (T ) ε σ T 4 ε M ( [W m K 4 ])(1000 K) 4 (0.93) 5, 77 [W m ] Problem 10. A satellite contains a detector with a responsivity of 0.0 [AW [ 1]]. As the detector spins, it is irradiated in three orientations (see Figure 1). What is the output of the cell in each of the three orientations if the source is located as shown in Figure 1 and has a radiance of 0.3 [W m sr 1 ]? Additionally, the source has an area of 4 cm while the detector has an area of 1 cm. 5

6 r m L r x 0.3 m Detector b a c 0 deg Figure 1: Layout for satellite detector problem. We can use the expression relating radiance and intensity. That is, L I o A cos θ I o LA cos θ If we consider the radiance on-axis (straight out) then cos θ is one. Therefore we have I o LA If we assume the source is Lambertian, then the intensity varies as I θ I o cos θ and since we with to point the intensity in the direction of the detector we have I θ LA cos θ Now we would like to calculate the irradiance onto the detector. Can we use the inverse square law for point sources? Is the distance to the detector at least 10 times the diameter of the source? The distance to the detector is r r1 + x (1.5 m) + (0.3 m) 1.53 m 6

The diameter of the source is A s πd s 4 4As (4)(4 cm d s π ).5 cm π Ten times this number is 0.5 cm 0. m which is much less than our distance of 1.53 m. Using the inverse square law to find the irradiance onto the detector we have (as in Figure ) E o I θ r LA s cos θ r We now need to take into account projected area effects to obtain the irradiance, E d onto the detector. E d E o cos θ L A s cos θ r We would like to compute the flux, Φ d onto the detector. E d Φ d A d Φ d E d A d L A s A d cos θ r 7

8 At this point we can use the definition for responsivity and re-write in terms of the signal, S d. β d S d Φ d S d β d Φ d β d L A s A d cos θ r After integrating out the partial derivatives, we have S d β L A s A d cos θ r We still need to calculate the angle, θ. Using trigonometry, we have tan θ x r 1 ( ) ( ) x 0.3m θ arctan arctan 11.3 deg 1.5m Final substitution yields S d r 1 ( )] β L A s A d cos [arctan x r1 ( ) r 1 + x (0.0 [AW 1 ])(0.3 [W m sr 1 ])( m )( m ) cos (11.3 deg) (1.53 m) A 98.6 pa for position (a). Problem 11. Assuming the Sun is approximately a 5700 K blackbody radiator with a diameter of 1, 39, 000 kilometers, what is a) the wavelength of maximum spectral radiant exitance? b) the spectral radiant exitance at this wavelength? c) the total radiant exitance of the Sun? d) the total power output of the Sun? a) The wavelength of maximum spectral radiant exitance? λ peek A T 898 µmk 5700 K µm

Given that the diffuser shown in Figure 3 produces a flux Φ θ through the aperture on the right hand side and that the diffuser s intensity is observed to vary according to I θ I o cos θ, derive completely, in simplest form, an expression for the intensity, I o in terms of Φ θ. State all assumptions. (Hint: cos m x sin x x cosm+1 x m+1 ). 9

10 Φ θ, I θ Φ o, I o Aperture Plate Diffuser Figure 3: Illustration of flux onto a diffuser, followed by flux exiting through an aperture. If we assume that the aperture is small compared to the measured distance, we can use point source approximations. We can first state the on-axis (E o, I o ) case which leads to, E o I o r Φ o A I o r Φ o I o A r The off-axis case is then Φ θ I θ A r I o cos θ (r dθ r sin θ dφ) r I o cos θ sin θ dθ dφ 10

Given a lamp with a radiant intensity of 0.1 [W sr 1 ] illuminating a lambertian diffuser 10 cm away with a 1 cm diameter aperture located just beyond the diffuser; this new 1 cm diameter source then illuminates a detector 100 cm from the lamp (see Figure 4). What is the irradiance on the detector if the transmission of the diffuser is 0.60? We will assume the radius of the lamp is small relative to the distance, r 1. The irradiance E i incident onto the back of the diffuser at a distance r 1 is. E I r 1 The exitance M and flux Φ from the diffuser is M Eτ Iτ r1 Φ MA IτA r1 11

Since the surface is lambertian, we can use a version of the relation M Lπ. For the on-axis case from the diffuser we have I diff Φ π IτA πr 1 Assuming the new source, I diff acts like a point-source (e.g., distance is at least 10 times the diameter of the source), we can use the 1

13 inverse square law. Thus we have E d E d I τd 4 r1 r I diff r I τa π r1 r I τπd 4π r1 r (0.1 [W sr 1 ]) (0.6)(0.01 m) 4(0.1 m) (0.9 m) [W m ] 185 [µw m ] PMT Problems Problem 14. Given a PMT with a cathode responsivity of 0.05 amps per watt, cathode size of 0.31 x 0.98 inches, anode sensitivity of 100,000 [A cm W 1 ], maximum anode current of amps, what are the a) anode responsivity, b) gain, c) maximum cathode current, d) maximum cathode flux and, e) the maximum irradiance? a) Anode responsivity? β a i a Φ c i a E c A c β a A c β a lw 100, 000 [A cm W 1 ] (0.31 in)(0.98 in) (.54cm 1in 51, 00 [A W 1 ] ) 13
