Monochromatic


Definition:

  • (a.) Consisting of one color, or presenting rays of light of one color only.

  • (18) After an infrared stimulus from a carbon dioxide laser, which has a monochromatic output at 10.6 micrometers, we find evoked potentials in boas with chronically implanted electrodes.
  • (19) (3) The effect is greater for monochromatic lights of wavelengths in the shorter region of the spectrum.
  • (20) As illumination level increased, the ability to discriminate wavelength differences deteriorated for the blue cone monochromats, whereas, for the deutan achromats, wavelength discrimination remained relatively constant even near 100,000 scotopic trolands.

Null


Definition:

  • (a.) Of no legal or binding force or validity; of no efficacy; invalid; void; nugatory; useless.
  • (n.) Something that has no force or meaning.
  • (n.) That which has no value; a cipher; zero.
  • (v. t.) To annul.
  • (n.) One of the beads in nulled work.
