Abstract:
The spectral matching coefficients between two kinds of BV-EMCCDs and dark green paint, rough concrete, green vegetation under clear starlight and full moon were calculated and compared, according to the expression of spectral matching coefficient. The matching coefficients for EMCCD with red-AR and the reflective radiation spectra of these objects are 0.4555, 0.4298 and 0.3685 under clear starlight, and 0.7290, 0.7194 and 0.6294 under full-moon, respectively. For EMCCD with blue-AR, the matching coefficients are 0.4233, 0.3910 and 0.3180, as well as 0.7832, 0.7448 and 0.5816 respectively. These values can be used to estimate the field performance and optimize the design of night vision systems.
