Record 3 2013-01-28

English

Subject field(s)
  • Optical Glass
  • Electromagnetic Radiation
  • Protective Clothing
  • The Eye
DEF

A filter that reversibly changes its luminous transmittance depending upon the intensity and wavelength of the radiation falling upon it.

OBS

This change is not instantaneous, but is a function of temperature-dependent and material-dependent time constants. The luminous transmittance of the filter therefore adjusts itself within certain limits to the ambient radiant flux.

OBS

photochromic sunglare filter; photochromic sunglass filter: terms and definition standardized by the International Organization for Standardization (ISO).

French

Domaine(s)
  • Verres d'optique
  • Rayonnements électromagnétiques
  • Vêtements de protection
  • Oeil
DEF

Filtre dont le facteur de transmission dans le visible varie de manière réversible selon l'éclairement énergétique et la longueur d'onde du rayonnement auquel il est exposé.

OBS

Cette variation n'est pas instantanée, mais dépend d'une constante de temps fonction de la température et du matériau. Ainsi, le facteur de transmission dans le visible du filtre s'ajuste-t-il, dans une certaine limite, au flux énergétique ambiant.

OBS

filtre photochromique de protection solaire; filtre photochromique pour lunettes de soleil : termes et définition normalisés par l'Organisation internationale de normalisation (ISO).
