Corrected emission spectrum

  "term": "Corrected emission spectrum",
  "field": "Chemistry",
  "definition": "A luminescence emission spectrum that has been adjusted to account for wavelength-dependent variations in the response of the measurement system. The raw, or technical, spectrum is multiplied by a correction factor at each wavelength to remove instrumental artifacts caused by the monochromator's transmission efficiency and the detector's spectral sensitivity. This process yields a true spectrum representing the quantum exitance per unit wavelength interval, which is independent of the specific instrument used for the measurement.",
