WAVELENGTHMICROMETERS
"wavelength of maximum energy" of
a blackbody at about 2,900 Kelvin
(4,700oF) which is the temperature of
an incandescent bulbs white-hot filament.

I (R/1+(2fRC)2)
for I, use 0.5 to 1 microamp per watt
for R, use either your load resistor value
or feedback resistor value
for C, use detector capacitance for Voltage Mode (typically 30 pF) or use
stray feedback capacitance for
Current Mode (typically 0.03 pF)
