Abstract
The method and the apparatus measures the total spectral radiance factor Bxs (λ) of a fluorescent sample illuminated by a specified illumination for testing Is without a fluorescent standard and a bothersome UV correction using it. The method and the apparatus calculates Bxs(λ) based on the spectral intensity Is(λ) of the illumination for testing, the measured spectral intensities I1(λ) and I2(λ) of actual illuminations I1 and I2 which are different from each other, a bi-spectral luminescent radiance factor F(μ,λ) or a bi-spectral radiance factor B(μ,λ) which is close to either of the sample, and the measured spectral intensities Sx1 (λ) and Sx2(λ) of the light emitted from the sample illuminated by illuminations I1 and I2.
