Lamp spectra out to 1um or longer?

[Paul Ciszek]

Does any site show spectra of common light sources that include the longer
wavelengths? Out to 1um would be nice, out to 1.6um would be even better.
I am most interested in slide projector bulbs (ELH?), halogen lamps, and
CFL's, but I'll take what I can get.

For the halogen lamps you can just use a blackbody spectrum.
For the CFL there is very little emission beyond the visible
except for a few near IR lines. (That accounts for their
high efficacy.)
