Oriel® Solar Simulators provide the closest spectral match to solar spectra available from any artificial source. The match is not exact, but better than needed for many applications. For the closest match possible, choose a Oriel Sol3A Class AAA Solar Simulator, these maintain an extremely tight uniformity, output stability and spectral match, as required by the photovoltaic cell manufacturers for testing PV cells. The xenon arc lamp at the heart of the device emits a 5800K blackbody-like spectrum with occasional line structure. The small high radiance arc allows efficient beam collimation. The system design features low F/# collection, optical beam homogenization, and filtering and finally, collimation.
