This is a classic question, and has probably been discussed here in the forum at some point over the years. But I would like to discuss the concern about working at a wavelength (in a UV detector) that is not on a fairly flat part of the spectra (i.e. working on a slope).
Now the obvious answer is that there may be somewhat more variability in response.
However, what I am getting hung up on are other issues. Specifically, the fact that the linearity is usually not as good and the intercept is generally larger, in these cases. But it is not clear to me why this should be.
Thanks in advance for any insight.
