A Color Appearance Model Applicable in Mesopic Vision

We propose a color vision model that can be used to predict color appearance in mesopic vision as well as photopic and scotopic vision. It is based on a two-stage model which consists of the cone and opponent stages and it assumes rod intrusion at the opponent stage. The model has the following features to describe the color appearance in mesopic vision. First, it includes a gradual and nonlinear shift in spectral luminous efficiency from V (LD) to V (LD) to cope with the spectral sensitivity difference between photopic and scotopic vision and the nonlinearity of rod influence on the luminance channel. Second, the model assumes decrease of the chromatic component with decreasing illuminance to explain the reduction of saturation at low illuminance levels. Third, it assumes that red/green and yellow/blue components change with illuminance levels independently, thus explaining hue shifts with decreasing illuminance. We applied the model for color appearance simulation of natural scenes in a mesopic visual environment.

Microstructures and Optical Properties of Scales of Butterfly Wings

This paper describes the mechanism generating the beautiful wing colors of various male butterflies and the relationship between the wing material and the color appearance. The microstructure of the scales covering the upper surface of the wings was analyzed with the aid of a scanning electron microscope. The basic mechanism of color generation of structurally colored scales is determined for the first time in accordance with the theory of optical interference in thin film layers using a model of wing scales. Optical properties were found in relation to the three-dimensional spectral reflectance of the samples, and differences were observed between the brightness perceived in subjective evaluations and calculated values based on the reflective spectra of the structurally colored wings. The results of this study suggest that the microroughness of the upper wing surface may influence the perceived gloss of structurally colored wings.     

High color rendering index and chromatic stability of top‐emitting white organic light‐emitting diodes capped with a supplementary green color conversion layer

We have demonstrated high color rendering index (CRI) and chromatic stability of top‐emitting white organic light‐emitting diodes (TEWOLEDs) by capping a supplementary green color conversion layer (CCL) on the cathode of single blue emitter based TEWOLEDs. By employing CCLs, blue photon energy is absorbed and converted to green emission efficiently, resulting in an improvement of CRI from 72 to 86. We attribute the increased high CRI to the broadening of the out‐coupled spectrum and an appropriate intensity match among the three primary colors. Meanwhile, the TEWOLEDs show extremely high chromatic stability. The results indicate that this method provides a new avenue to improve the CRI of TEWOLEDs.

     

Color Property of the Recognized Visual Space of Illumination Controlled by Interior Color as the Initial Visual Information

It was shown that the color property of the recognized visual space of illumination, RVSI was controlled by changing the initial visual information by arranging objects in the room all shifting toward orange direction. We constructed two miniature rooms, D and I, both illuminated by the same daylight type fluorescent lamps but arranged with furniture of different color, those in room I shifting toward color as if they were illuminated by an incandescent lamp. Subjects felt as if room I were illuminated by an incandescent lamp. A test patch was placed midair in each room and its color was judged. When the test patches were placed in room I their colors were all perceived to be shifted toward greenish blue compared to those of test patches placed in room D, in spite of having the same illumination. The results imply that the apparent color of an object is determined not by its chromaticity, but in relation to the color property of the RVSI of the room where the object is observed.

针对彩色编码投影栅三维轮廊术所需的分色技术要求,根据光度学的原理,提出了一种由RGB格式到HIS格式的变换关系,同时给出了逆变换关系式,亮度I定义为R,G,B三个分量的平均值,白度S定义为R,G,B三个分量中最小的分量除以亮度值。用R．G．B三个分量中的最小值去减另外两个分量,得到该像素所对应的光谱色,然后由这两个分量的比值来确定色度H。在HIS格式中将亮度与颜色信息分离开,在进行分色处理时可以不受亮度变化的影响,通过设定固定的阈值,可以将红,绿,蓝,青,品,黄几种颜色有效地区分开来。     

802GHz integrated horn antennas imaging array

This short paper presents the pattern measurements at 802GHz of a single element in a 256-element integrated horn imaging array. The integrated-horn antenna consists of a dipole-antenna suspended on a 1m dielectric membrane inside a pyramidal cavity etched in Silicon. The theoretical far-field patterns, calculated using reciprocity and Floquet-modes representation of the free-space field, agree well with the measured far-field patterns at 802GBz. The associated directivity for a 1.40 horn aperture, calculated from the measured E and H-plane patterns is 12.3dB±0.2dB. This work demonstrates that high-efficiency integrated-horn antennas are easily scalable to terahertz frequencies and could be used for radio-astronomical and plasma-diagnostic applications.

Effect of the binder on the brightness of the electroluminescence emission of ZnS powder phosphors

The electroluminescence of a ZnS phosphor based on several binders was examined. It was shown that electroluminescent layers based on several binders have an additional (super) brightness relative to the brightness corresponding to a field strength computed with the theory of heterogeneous systems. The hypothesis is outlined that the super-brightness results from a charge accumulation on the surface of the crystal phosphor during the excitation of the same.

鉴于利用彩色视觉装置进行在线测量是颜色测量在工业应用发展的趋势,而光源的光谱分布和相机响应函数与人眼的光谱响应曲线的不一致会严重影响测量的精确性,在人工D65光源和LED阵列光源照明下,利用相同的工业相机获取校正图片,采用多项式回归方法在与设备无关空间sRGB和CIEL*a*b*空间进行校正。实验结果显示在校正前平均色差分别为27.68E和16.09E,人工D65光源照明下获取的图片色差较小,校正后不同光源下获取图片的色度趋于一致,分别为2.56E和2.39E。采用sRGB颜色空间,在校正精度、校正步骤、图片显示等方面都要优于CIEL*a*b*空间。以一幅拍摄的实际图片校正为例,显示了色度校正对彩色装置的重要性。

Angle coder of anti-counterfeiting color in optical micro-mirror arrays

Based on the optical characteristics of optical micro-mirror and subtractive color theory, a new anti-counterfeiting model of micro-mirror pixels was established according to the analysis of the connection between the reflective brightness and structural stability. Our results demonstrate that the digital micro-mirror arrays based on the value of CMYKS subtractive color have enough reflected brightness and stability and can be used for anti-counterfeiting optical variable devices when different printing micro-mirror arrays are coded. The variety of optical effects including a security color switch on or switch off have been demonstrated by the use of different black color K or particular color S value. The display angle or orientation of the security color can be set or coded with the different S or K value.     

Investigation of the characteristics of low-voltage electroluminescent films of ZnS · Mn excited by pulses

The brightness waves resulting from excitation by square pulses, the time constant of the flash initiation and of the electroluminescence decay, the average brightness of low-voltage ZnS · Mn films as a function of the voltage-pulse duration, the frequency of these pulses, and their amplitude and polarity were investigated. The equivalent circuit of cells with such electroluminescent films is discussed. A flash can be observed when the first of a series of monopolar pulses are applied to the cell or when the polarity of the pulses is changed. It was established that the average brightness of the electroluminescence from ZnS·Mn films can be increased considerably when pulses with varying polarity are applied instead of unipolar pulses.By excitation with pulses of varying polarity, one can achieve an average brightness of not less than 15–20 nits for a pulse amplitude greater than or equal to 30 volts, a pulse duration greater than or equal to 20 sec., and a pulse repetition frequency greater than or equal to 200 cps.In conclusion, the authors express their thanks to V. I. Kislyuk and I. Yu. Shablii for their help in the experiments, and to Dr. M. P. Lisitsa for her interest.

Brightness Perception of Light Source Colors in Dense Fog

The characteristics of our color vision are affected by various visual environments. In this experiment, we examined how colored lights look in dense fog. We used 12 kinds of colored light as a test stimulus. At first, in the absence of fog, subjects matched brightness of all the test stimuli with a reference white light adjusted to 0.1 cd/m² or 0.5 cd/m² in luminance, respectively. They then evaluated the apparent brightness of the test stimuli in dense fog with magnitude estimation of 10 grades. In the presence of fog, test stimuli containing a yellow component were given the highest point value of brightness, while test stimuli containing a blue component were given the lowest point value of brightness in fog. We are confident that in a visual environment involving fog, these results will be extremely helpful and practical.
