Quantum dot (QD) is a kind of semiconductor nanoparticle and shows photoluminescence, in which the light with narrow spectral band is emitted from the QD after the absorption of the excitation light. In this study, it is demonstrated that the LED-based light source combined with a QD film can be applied to spectral imaging. The polymer film with QD was prepared by photopolymerization. Through measurement of the emission spectrum, it was confirmed that the optical intensity at the peak wavelength of the spectral bands of 410 and 540 nm could be controlled by changing the thickness of the film. In the study using a home-made phantom mimicking blood vessels, the patterns’ contrast in the phantom images could be enhanced by using LED combined with QD as compared with the white light image. The LED light combined with the QD film provides a useful solution for illumination for spectral imaging.

This paper is concerned with designing light source spectra for optimum luminous efficacy and colour rendering. We demonstrate that it is possible to design light sources that can provide both good colour rendering and high luminous efficacy by combining the outputs of a number of narrowband spectral constituents. Also, the achievable results depend on the numbers and wavelengths of the different spectral bands utilized in the mixture. Practical realization of these concepts has been demonstrated in this pilot study which combines a number of simulations with tests using real LEDs (light emitting diodes). Such sources are capable of providing highly efficient lighting systems with good energy conservation potential. Further research is underway to investigate the practicalities of our proposals in relation to large-scale light source production.

The full potentiality of spectral vegetation indices (VIs) can only be evaluated after removing topographic, atmospheric and soil background effects from radiometric data. Concerning the former effect, the topographic effect was barely investigated in the context of VIs, despite the current availability correction methods and Digital elevation Model (DEM). In this study, we performed topographic correction on Landsat 5 TM spectral bands and evaluated the topographic effect on four VIs: NDVI, RVI, EVI and SAVI. The evaluation was based on analyses of mean and standard deviation of VIs and TM band 4 (near-infrared), and on linear regression analyses between these variables and the cosine of the solar incidence angle on terrain surface (cos i). The results indicated that VIs are less sensitive to topographic effect than the uncorrected spectral band. Among VIs, NDVI and RVI were less sensitive to topographic effect than EVI and SAVI. All VIs showed to be fully independent of topographic effect only after correction. It can be concluded that the topographic correction is required for a consistent reduction of the topographic effect on the VIs from rugged terrain.

C<sub>4</sub>F<sub>7</sub>N and C<sub>4</sub>F<sub>7</sub>N-CO<sub>2</sub> mixtures are considered as alternatives to SF<sub>6</sub> for use in medium voltage gas insulated switchgear applications (GIS), due to the low global warming potential and good dielectric properties of C<sub>4</sub>F<sub>7</sub>N. Current work is focused on the calculation of radiative properties (absorption coefficients) of C<sub>4</sub>F<sub>7</sub>N-CO<sub>2</sub> thermal plasma and computational fluid dynamics (CFD) simulations of free burning C<sub>4</sub>F<sub>7</sub>N-CO<sub>2</sub> arcs that are stabilized by natural convection. Absorption coefficients of C<sub>4</sub>F<sub>7</sub>N-CO<sub>2</sub> plasma used in the CFD model are derived from spectral absorption coefficients by Planck averaging. An optimization procedure has been applied to find the optimal number of spectral bands as well as spectral band interval boundaries. Radiation and flow model results for C<sub>4</sub>F<sub>7</sub>N-CO<sub>2</sub> in comparison to SF<sub>6</sub> and air are provided and discussed.
