The role of secondary features in serial dependence

Recent work indicates that visual features are processed in a serially dependent manner: The decision about a stimulus feature in the present is influenced by the features of stimuli seen in the past, leading to serial dependence. It remains unclear, howev ...

Enhanced Room-Temperature Photoluminescence Quantum Yield in Morphology Controlled J-Aggregates

Frank Nüesch, Jakob Heier, Surendra Babu Anantharaman

Supramolecular assemblies from organic dyes forming J-aggregates are known to exhibit narrowband photoluminescence with full-width at half maximum of approximate to 9 nm (260 cm(-1)). Applications of these high color purity emitters, however, are hampered ...

Effects of multiple scattering on angle-independent structural color in disordered colloidal materials

Sofia Magkiriadou

Disordered packings of colloidal spheres show angle-independent structural color when the particles are on the scale of the wavelength of visible light. Previous work has shown that the positions of the peaks in the reflectance spectra can be predicted acc ...

Exciton Dynamics and Effects of Structural Order in Morphology-Controlled J-Aggregate Assemblies

Frank Nüesch, Jakob Heier, Surendra Babu Anantharaman

Narrow-band photoluminescence (PL) together with high quantum efficiency from organic molecules is essential for high-color-purity emitters. Supramolecular assemblies like J-aggregates are promising materials due to their narrow PL signal with full-width a ...

Laminated glazing with coloured reflection and high solar transmittance suitable for solar energy systems

Andreas Schueler, Josef Andreas Schuler, Virginie Hody-Le Caër

Laminated and etched glazing unit for architectural integration of solar energy systems comprising a substrate delimited by two main faces and a multi-layered interference filter also delimited by two main faces, one main face of said substrate being adapt ...

Full Color Generation Using Silver Tandem Nanodisks

Olivier Martin, Christian Santschi, Chen Yan, Xiaolong Wang, Jingwen Zhang, Hua Zhao

Plasmonic effects associated with metallic nanostructures have been widely studied for color generation. It became apparent that highly saturated and bright colors are hard to obtain, and very small nanostructures need to be fabricated. To address this iss ...

Games with Hypotheses: Color, Text and Texture

Sabine Süsstrunk

An online memory matching game is used to explore the collective performance for stimulus sets varying in color, text and texture. The game is a consistent five wide by four high array of 70 by 70 pixels squares for a total of eleven unique test pairs. Use ...

Revisiting Radiometric Calibration for Color Computer Vision

Sabine Süsstrunk, Seungryong Kim, Matthew Brown

We present a study of radiometric calibration and the in-camera imaging process through an extensive analysis of more than 10,000 images from over 30 cameras. The goal is to investigate if image values can be transformed to physically meaningful values and ...

Room-temperature combinatorial screening of cyclometallated iridium(III) complexes for a step towards molecular control of colour purity

Michael Graetzel, Mohammad Khaja Nazeeruddin, Rosario Scopelliti, Euro Solari, Il Jung

A library of emission spectra of 90 bis-cyclometallated iridium complexes has been obtained using a simple combinatorial approach performed at room temperature. Trends in emission maxima are rationalized using Hammett parameters and invoking inter ligand e ...

Hiding patterns with daylight fluorescent inks

Roger Hersch, Romain Rossier

We propose a method for hiding patterns within printed images by making use of classical and of two daylight fluorescent magenta and yellow inks. Under the D65 illuminant we establish in the CIELAB space the gamut of a classical cmyk printer and the gamut ...

Surface Construction by a 2-D Differentiation-Integration Process: A Neurocomputational Model for Perceived Border Ownership, Depth, and Lightness in Kanizsa Figures

Christoph Strecha

Human visual perception is a fundamentally relational process: Lightness perception depends on luminance ratios, and depth perception depends on occlusion (difference of depth) cues. Neurons in low-level visual cortex are sensitive to the difference (but n ...

Exploiting redundancy in color images

Joanna Marguier

The colors in a digital image do not only depend on the scene's reflectances, but also on the lighting conditions and on the characteristics of the imaging device. It is often necessary to separate the influence of these three elements, in particular to se ...

Repairing Gamut Problems in CIECAM02: A Progress Report

Sabine Süsstrunk

The color-appearance model CIECAM02 has several problems, which can result in mathematical instabilities, due to the relation of the chromatic-adaptation primaries to the spectrum locus and to the presumed physiological cone primaries. To keep a correspond ...

Color images visible under UV light

Roger Hersch, Sylvain Chosson, Philipp Donzé

The present contribution aims at creating color images printed with fluorescent inks that are only visible under UV light. The considered fluorescent inks absorb light in the UV wavelength range and reemit part of it in the visible wavelength range. In con ...

Thin film multilayer design types for colored glazed thermal solar collectors

Jean-Louis Scartezzini, Andreas Schueler, Christian Roecker, Estelle De Chambrier

Multilayered inteference filters of dielectric thin films have been designed for the application as energy-efficient coloration of collector cover glasses. The optical behavior of the designed multilayers is analyzed by computer simulations yielding the CI ...
