This web page will be for nothing but spectra of 10mm, 8mm, 5mm, 3mm, and SMD LEDS (driven at 20mA to 60mA):

Ocean Optics USB2000 Spectrometer donated by P.L.
As of 10-10-07, I've been using a PC2000-ISA Spectrometer from Ocean Optics that I received several years ago, but that I didn't have a home for until now.
As of 03-08-07, I once again have the USB2000 spectrometer, enabling color spectra again.



YELLOW-GREEN

Spectrographic plot
Spectrographic analysis of an odd-based 5mm yellow-green LED from the 1970s.


Spectrographic plot
Spectrographic analysis of a yellow-green LED from the late-1960s.


Spectrographic plot
Spectrographic analysis of a flat-faced yellow-green LED from the 1980s.


Spectrographic plot
Spectrographic analysis of a T½ yellow-green LED, probably from the early-1970s.


Spectrographic plot
Spectrographic analysis of one of the LED segments (yellow-green) in the Rainbow Big-Digit LED Clock.


Spectrographic plot
Spectrographic analysis of the yellow-green LED in the Indiana Jones Light-Up Spoon.


Spectrographic plot
Spectrometer plot of a Panasonic LN3 LED - this LED looks like a germanium radio diode and was made by Panasonic in the late-1970s to the early-1980s.
They have a leakage current in the femtoamps and were used as a low leakage reference diode. Nowadays, they use something called a "bandgap reference" for the really low voltages; above about 1.8 volts we start to see ordinary zener diodes.
