Abstract: |
Bandpass correction in spectrometer measurements using monochromators is often necessaryin order to obtain accurate measurement results. The classical approach of spectrometer bandpass correction is based on local polynomial approximations and the use of finite differences. Here we compare this approach with an extension of the Richardson–Lucy method, which is well known in image processing, but has not been applied to spectrum bandpass correction yet. Using an extensive simulation study and a practical example, we demonstrate the potential of the Richardson–Lucy method. In contrast to the classical approach, it is robust w.r.t. wavelength step size and measurement noise. In almost all cases the Richardson–Lucy method turns out to be superior to the classical approach both in terms of spectrum estimate and its associated uncertainties. |
