We use Optical Character Recognition (OCR) during our scanning and processing workflow to make the content of each page searchable. You can view the automatically generated text below as well as copy and paste individual pieces of text to quote in your own work.

Text recognition is never 100% accurate. Many parts of the scanned page may not be reflected in the OCR text output, including: images, page layout, certain fonts or handwriting.

Light Filters — Jones 143 In Fig. 3, curve A, the spectrophotometric density curve for the filter illustrated in Fig. 2 is shown. Now suppose it is desired to determine the effect upon the spectral absorption of increased concentration of dye used in making the filter. Let the required concentrations be 2 and 4 times that represented by curve A in which it may be assumed that concentration is x grams per unit area. Let Dx be the density at some particular wave-length X as read 300 400 500 600 700 WAVELENGTH (m /ji) Fig. 3. Spectrophotometric density curves of green filter, illustrating relation between density and concentration and effect of surface reflection. , from curve A, for concentration 2x the required density will be given by Z)\=[(Z)x-.036)2] + 0.036 and for a concentration of 4x D'\=[(Dx .036)4] + 0.036. Computing the necessary values for various wave-lengths and plotting, the curves B and C are obtained. It is interesting to compare the result obtained by increasing the concentration 4 times, curve C, with that obtained by using four layers of the original film as shown by curve A. This case is represented by curve D, the ordinates of which were obtained by multiplying the ordinates of curve A by 4.
