Fluorescent Seeding Particles for PIV
Applications
|
|
|
|
FLUOSTAR
microspheres are polymer particles encapsulating the fluorescent dye,
Rhodamine B, which emits the orange-colored fluorescence when
illuminated by a green-colored laser (e.g. Nd:YAG, Nd:YLF).
FLUOSTAR feature the outstanding emission efficiency
of fluorescence, which are best suited for PIV applications. The strong
orange-colored fluorescence may be even observed by sight using a 5 mW
laser pointer. >> Technical
