Interior Lighting
Author: Wout van Bommel
Publisher: Springer
ISBN: 3030171957
Category : Science
Languages : en
Pages : 485
Book Description
This book outlines the underlying principles on which interior lighting should be based, provides detailed information on the lighting hardware available today and gives guidance for the design of interior lighting installations resulting in good visual performance and comfort, alertness and health. The book is divided into three parts. Part One discusses the fundamentals of the visual and non-visual mechanisms and the practical consequences for visual performance and comfort, for sleep, daytime alertness and performance, and includes chapters on age effects, therapeutic effects and hazardous effects of lighting. Part Two deals with the lighting hardware: lamps (with emphasis on LEDs), gear, drivers and luminaires including chapters about lighting controls and LEDs beyond lighting. Part Three is the application part, providing the link between theory and practice and supplying the reader with the knowledge needed for lighting design. It describes the relevant lighting criteria for good and efficient interior lighting and discusses the International, European and North American standards and recommendations for interior lighting. A particular focus is on solid state light sources (LEDs) and the possibility to design innovative, truly-sustainable lighting installations that are adaptable to changing circumstances. The design of such installations is difficult and the book offers details of the typical characteristics of the many different solid state light sources, and of the aspects determining the final quality of interior lighting. Essential reading for interior lighting designers, lighting engineers and architects, the book will also be a useful reference for researchers and students. Reviews of Road Lighting by the same author: "If you are going to design streetlighting, you must read this book....a solid, comprehensive textbook written by an acknowledged expert in the field – if you have a query about any aspect of streetlighting design, you will find the answer here.” – LUX, August 2015 “...a realy comprehensive book dealing with every aspect of the subject well...essential text for reference on this subject” – Lighting Journal, March 2015

Color Science and Photometry for Lighting with LEDs and Semiconductor Nanocrystals
Author: Talha Erdem
Publisher: Springer
ISBN: 9811358869
Category : Technology & Engineering
Languages : en
Pages : 82
Book Description
This book reviews the application of semiconductor nanocrystals also known as colloidal quantum dots (QDs) to LED lighting for indoors and outdoors as well as LED backlighting in displays, summarizing the color science of QDs for lighting and displays and presenting recent developments in QD-integrated LEDs and display research. By employing QDs in color-conversion LEDs, it is possible to simultaneously accomplish successful color rendition of the illuminated objects and a good spectral overlap between the emission spectrum of the light source and the sensitivity of the human eye at a warm white color temperature – something that is fundamentally challenging to achieve with conventional sources, such as incandescent and fluorescent lamps, and phosphor-based LEDs.

Synthetic Dyes in Biology, Medicine And Chemistry
Author: Edward Gurr
Publisher: Elsevier
ISBN: 0323142427
Category : Technology & Engineering
Languages : en
Pages : 816
Book Description
Synthetic Dyes in Biology, Medicine and Chemistry is a guide in selecting dyes for special purposes in biology, medicine, chemistry, and other related fields. It aims to help professionals including histologists, cytologists, and other biology and medicine experts, such as chemists and general scientists. The dyes discussed in this book are categorized in 17 different classes according to the nature of their salt-forming sidechains, the colligators. This book also presents the uses of each dye. The spectral curve, which is the ionic and/or molecular weight of each dye, is also covered in this book. Likewise, this text provides the structural and empirical formulae of the spectral curve. Part I tackles various groups of dyes. These groups are the non-ionic, anionic, and cationic dyes. The anionic dyes are further grouped as wholly acid, weakly amphoteric, and moderately or strongly amphoteric. The subsequent part deals with the examples of dyes that do not fit the categories mentioned in Part I. These miscellaneous dyes are vat, reactive, disperse, and ingrain dyes. Part III presents the dyes in different tables according to wavelength of maximum absorption and ionic or molecular weight. This book also covers the stabilized diazonium salts and substituted napthols.
