| Question | Answer |
|---|---|
| Barrier Filter | - intended to suppress or block (absorb) certain wavelengths and permit only selected wavelengths to pass through - blocks reflected light and transmits fluoresced light |
| Bypass Filter | - allows limited range of wavelength to be recorded and blocks all other colours - used w/ ultraviolet which only allows ultraviolet range of wavelength |
| Electromagnetic Wavelength | - Red is 700nm has lower frequency and less energy - Blue is 400nm has higher frequency and more energy - Orange = 620nm - Yellow = 590nm - Green = 575nm - Violet = 400nm - Near UV area = 300-400 - Near IR area = 700-1100 - Visible area = 400-700 |
| Which wavelength has high/low frequency? | - short wavelength, towards UV, = high frequency - long wavelength, towards IR = low frequency |
| Primary Characteristics of Light | 1. Wavelength 2. Frequency 3. Speed |
| Specular Light | - light strikes a smooth surface (A) and reflects at the same angle and parallel |
| Fluorescence | - emission lasts about 1 second after emitting radiation is discontinued |
| Stokes Shift | - Stokes Shift was coined by Sir George Stoked in 1850 - has longer wavelength than incident radiation |
| Phosphorescence | - range of luminescence is several seconds after emitting radiation is discontinued - example: hands if a watch |
| Red | 700nm and has lower frequency and less energy |
| Blue | 400nm and has higher frequency and more energy |
| Orange | 620nm |
| Green | 575nm |
| Yellow | 590nm |
| Violet | 400nm |
