Vi. Bezrodnyi et al., ABSORPTION FILTERS BASED ON POLYMETHINE DYES FOR PROTECTION FROM LASER-RADIATION WITH A WAVELENGTH OF 1060 NM, Journal of optical technology, 63(12), 1996, pp. 936-940
Liquid and solid (polymer films and triplexes) absorption filters have
been developed on the basis of new polymethine dyes for protection fr
om laser radiation. This paper discusses the features of the spectral,
photochemical, and protective properties of the dyes in various media
. Attenuation of laser radiation at lambda = 1060 nm by 4.2 orders of
magnitude has been achieved with a total visual transmittance of 88% a
nd by 6 orders of magnitude with a value of the latter of 39%. (C) 199
