Abstract:

The luminescence properties of aromatic hydrocarbons in plastic matrices were examined. The relation between luminescence and photoconductivity of zinc oxide and its dependence on environmental factors was established. A fluorescein plastic having properties indicative of induced emission was made and tested. A new method for determining the degree of coherence of non- monochromatic light sources was devised.
