Extended Data Fig. 4

The emitter spectrum was measured at different emitter temperatures spanning the test temperature range. A model (Methods) was fit to the measurement and used to extend the spectra measurements to longer wavelengths. The spectral radiance goes to zero > ~4500 nm due to the presence of the quartz envelope around the bulb, as quartz is absorbing beyond this wavelength.
