Use a fluorescent bulb spectrum to calibrate your spectrometer

You can use a previous fluorescent bulb spectrum from the same spectrometer to calibrate this spectrum, as long as the device has not been modified.

First, choose a recent calibrated spectrum; the most recent is selected by default:

You must be logged in to copy a calibration.

Use a fluorescent bulb spectrum to calibrate your spectrometer

Learn how »

You can calibrate with a clear fluorescent spectrum like the one shown here. If the current spectrum is not usable, you can record a new one, and if you do not change your spectrometer, you can use the calibration for subsequent spectra.

First, click on the highest peak of the middle blue band:

Cancel Use existing calibration Begin
Complete your calibration

Now, click at the peak of the green band as shown here:

Finish
Choose where to extract data from this image

To generate data, we look at the brightness of one slice of the image. Here, click on the image to choose which row to sample from.

You must be logged in to choose a sample row.

Cancel Begin
Search and compare your spectrum to others. Be aware that your device is not amplitude calibrated by default (Learn more).
