(under subclass 472.1) Subject matter which includes detectors which, upon receiving radiation, changes its optical properties.
(1) Note. The optical properties are transmission, reflection, refraction, diffraction, and color.
SEE OR SEARCH THIS CLASS, SUBCLASS:
327.2, for methods and apparatus which includes a radiation generator and a detector for recording radiation incident upon the detectors.
375, for methods of exposing a detector of this subclass to invisible radiant energy where only the intensity of this incident radiation is desired.
505.1+, for invisible radiation controlling means, per se, other than those responsive to infrared, visible light, X-ray and ultraviolet light.
SEE OR SEARCH CLASS 204, Chemistry: Electrical and Wave Energy,
157.15+, for methods of irradiating materials by radiant energy to change an optical characteristic of the material.
252, Compositions,
408, for radiation detectors and methods of making the detectors which change an optical property upon being subjected to radiation where the detector is no more than a composition.
359, Optics: Systems (Including Communication) and Elements,
240+, for optical devices which change an optical property in response to radiation.
