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.     

Does a Reinforced Kinetic Macrocyclic Effect Exist? The Demetallation in Strong Acid of Copper(II) Complexes with Open and Cyclic Tetramines Containing a Piperazine Fragment

The demetallation in acidic solution of the Cu(II) complexes with open-chain and cyclic tetramines containing a piperazine unit (2 and 3) has been investigated in terms of its kinetic aspects and compared with the behaviour of unsubstituted counterparts (tetramines 1 and 4). The presence of the piperazine fragment slows demetallation of the open-chain-ligand complex owing to the activation barrier associated with the conformational change from boat-to-half-boat; however, it does not affect the demetallation of the macrocyclic complex, which involves the spontaneous boat-to-twist conformational change. Thus, lateral reinforcement of a cyclam-like ligand does not add any further contribution to the typical inertness in demetallation of macrocyclic complexes.     

基于Zernike多项式表示色域边界的色域映射

在彩色图像的跨媒体复制中,由于不同媒体有不同的色域,所以在大多数情况下色域映射是不可避免的。不论采用何种映射算法,色域映射的第一步是确定有关媒体的色域边界。目前大多数的色域边界都是用一组测量的或用其它方法得到的离散数据来表示的。然而,由于这种表示方式是利用一组离散数据来实施色域映射的两个基本处理(即确定任一指定的等色调面平面中色域的边缘线以及确定色域边界与一条映射线的交点),比较复杂和费时,因此希望找到一种色域边界的解析表达式来解决这一问题。简述了不久前提出的一种解析函数色域边界表示方法,并用实例说明了如何利用这种解析表示(Zernike多项式)来实现上述的边缘线确定和交点确定。最后给出了几种映射算法的色域映射完整过程及其结果。     

CaWO4晶体中F型色心电子结构的研究

运用相对论的密度泛函离散变分法(DV-Xα)研究了CaWO₄晶体中F型色心的电子结构. 计算结果表明，F和F⁺心在禁带中引入了新的施主能级；分析了晶体内可能存在的光学跃迁模式，并通过过渡态的方法计算了F，F⁺心跃迁到导带底的能量分别为1.92eV和2.42eV. 因此，从理论上推断了F和F⁺心在CaWO₄晶体中可能引起650nm和515nm的吸收，由此说明CaWO₄晶体中650nm和515nm吸收带起源于晶体中的F和F⁺心. 关键词： 4晶体')" href="#">CaWO₄晶体 +心')" href="#">F和F⁺心 DV-Xα

A novel two color infrared (IR) device that allows fast electrical switching between the short wavelength IR (SWIR) band (0.9–1.6 μm) and the long wavelength IR (LWIR) band (8–12 μm) is presented. The integrated sensor is based on MOCVD grown, lattice matched (to InP substrate) epilayers of InGaAs/InP and consists of two, monolithically integrated sections of heterojunction bipolar transistor (HBT) and quantum well infrared photodetector (QWIP).     

Optical Characterization of Iridescent Wings of <Emphasis Type="Italic">Morpho</Emphasis> Butterflies using a High Accuracy Nonstandard Finite-Difference Time-Domain Algorithm

In certain species of moths and butterflies iridescent colors arise from subwavelength diffractive surface corrugation of the wing-scales. The optical properties of such structures depend strongly on wavelength, incidence angle, and state of polarization of illuminating radiation, and the viewing angle. In this paper, we study the reflection spectra of the wings of the Morpho didius butterfly by simulating a double-layered model of a transverse cross-section comprised of the ground scale and the cover scale. Each layer contains a certain quasi-periodic arrangement of tree-like subwavelength microstructures. The simulation is done using a high accuracy nonstandard finite-difference time-domain (FDTD) method in two dimensions. We assume that the structure is made of a slightly lossy dielectric material. The wavelength dependence of the complex refractive index for the ground scale of Morpho didius is assumed to be similar to that of Morpho sulkowskyi. The complex refractive index in the latter case was obtained by comparing the computed reflection/transmission spectra with corresponding experimental measurements at normal incidence.     

Characterizing abrupt changes in the stock prices using a wavelet decomposition method

Abrupt changes in the stock prices, either upwards or downwards, are usually preceded by an oscillatory behavior with frequencies that tend to increase as the moment of transition becomes closer. The wavelet decomposition methods may be useful for analysis of this oscillations with varying frequencies, because they provide simultaneous information on the frequency (scale) and localization in time (translation). However, in order to use the wavelet decomposition, certain requirements have to be satisfied, so that the linear and cyclic trends are eliminated by standard least squares techniques. The coefficients obtained by the wavelet decomposition can be represented in a graphical form. A threshold can then be established to characterize the likelihood of a short-time abrupt change in the stock prices. Actual data from the São Paulo Stock Exchange (Bolsa de Valores de São Paulo) were used in this work to illustrate the proposed method.
