Abstract
Sources of infra-red radiation have the property of emitting besides infra-red radiation also visible radiation which is considered to be disturbing in particular applications; in order to avoid it the visible portion of radiation is absorbed by means of a gas or a gas mixture so that only the infra-red radiation emerges from the source of infra-red radiation.
Claims4
Apparatus for suppressing the visible portion of the radiation emitted by a source of infra-red radiation comprising a glass tube enclosing said source, at least one transparent envelope surrounding and spaced from said source and a gas or a mixture of gases having an absorption spectrum in the visible wave band enclosed in the space between said glass tube and said envelope.
Apparatus for suppressing the visible portion of the radiation emitted by a source of infra-red radiation, comprising means for surrounding said source at least partially by a gas or a mixture of gases having an absorption spectrum in the visible wave band, said means comprising two panes of glass between which said gas or gases are accommodated, said panes of glass serving as a cover for said source.
