The original meaning of dichroic, from the Greek dikhroos, two-coloured, refers to any optical device which can split a beam of light into two beams with differing wavelengths.
There are no mirror reflection (m) operations for the dichromatic triangle, as there would be if all the smaller component triangles were coloured white. However, by introducing the anti-mirror reflection (m') operation the full dihedral D3 symmetry is restored. The six operations making up the dichromatic D3 (3m') point group are: identity (e)
A dichromatic color space can be defined by only two primary colors. When these primary colors are also the unique hues, then the color space contains the individuals entire gamut. In dichromacy, the unique hues can be evoked by exciting only a single cone at a time, e.g. monochromatic light near the extremes of the visible spectrum.
A pendant made from modern dichroic glass. Dichroic glass is glass which can display multiple different colors depending on lighting conditions.. One dichroic material is a modern composite non-translucent glass that is produced by stacking layers of metal oxides which give the glass shifting colors depending on the angle of view, causing an array of colors to be displayed as an example of ...
Dichromatic may refer to: Dichromacy , a form of color-blindness in which only two light wavelengths are distinguished rather than the usual three Dichromatic, describing an optical device which splits light into two parts according to its wavelength: a form of dichroism
Dichroic mirrors are used in some ellipsoidal reflector spotlights to split off unwanted infrared (heat) radiation, and as output couplers in laser construction. A third version of the beam splitter is a dichroic mirrored prism assembly which uses dichroic optical coatings to divide an incoming light beam into a number of spectrally distinct ...
Dielectric mirrors are very common in optics experiments, due to improved techniques that allow inexpensive manufacture of high-quality mirrors. Examples of their applications include laser cavity end mirrors, hot and cold mirrors , thin-film beamsplitters , high damage threshold mirrors, and the coatings on modern mirrorshades and some ...
A trichroic prism assembly Dichroic prism. A dichroic prism is a prism that splits light into two beams of differing wavelengths (colour). [1] A trichroic prism assembly combines two dichroic prisms to split an image into 3 colours, typically as red, green and blue of the RGB colour model.
