title: Radiometric calibration of tempospatially modulated polarization interference imaging spectrometer.
abstract: The tempospatially modulated polarization interference imaging spectrometer (TSMPIIS) nominated by the Ministry of Scence and Technology, takes part in the "Eleventh Five-Year National Science and Technology Exhibition." In order to improve the detecting precision of the TSMPIIS, its radiometric calibration scheme is proposed on the basis of the solar simulator, integrating sphere, monochromator, and spectroradiometer. Under the conditions of changing the exposure time and radiant brightness, the CCD linear responses for the TSMPIIS were first tested to validate the reliability of the radiometric calibration performed with a linear response model, and the linear errors were less than 0.15% and 1.15%, respectively. A novel method is put forward to calibrate the nonuniformity of CCD pixels, and the least squares method can commendably correct the uneven effect in the spatial direction. Besides, the absolute radiometric calibration establishes a corresponding relation between the dimensionless intensity output from the TSMPIIS and the target radiant brightness. The study lays the foundation for the engineering application of the TSMPIIS, such as remote sensing detection, and has an important significance for the development of our instrument and equipment technology with independent intellectual property rights.
