Abstract
The results are considered of a comparison of the national scales of spectral responsivity of 18 national metrological laboratories including the All-Union Scientific-Research Institute of Optophysical Measurements (VNIIOFI) between themselves and with the scale of the International Bureau of Weights and Measures (BIPM) in the spectral wavelength range 250–1000 nm using two different types of silicon photodetector. The comparisons indicated satisfactory agreement between the results of measurements of spectral responsivity by the participating laboratories. The difference between the spectral responsivity scale of VNIIOFI and that of the BIPM did not exceed ±0.5% for the visible wavelength range and the near infrared. The maximum difference of the scales in the near ultraviolet wavelength range was 3.7%.
