Fluorescent colors were first invented in the mid-1930s with the discovery and development of fluorescent dyes by Bob and Joe Switzer. These dyes were initially used for creating fluorescent paints and later expanded into other applications such as textiles and plastics.

Which color is brighter fluorescent or neon?

Neon is brighter than fluorescent. On cars it is anyways. I paint cars for a living and I have found from experience that neon colors are brighter than fluorescent colors. So if you want a bright green, pink, orange, yellow, blue, red, etc pretty much any color is brighter in neon. If you want the color to be a bit duller than you should go with fluorescent colors. I don't care about ur cars! I wanna no wot colour neon gas is wen electricity passes throo it! TELL ME SUM1!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!bitch


Which can give light similar to natural sunlight an incandascent or fluorescent lamp?

Neither incandescent nor fluorescent lamps can provide light exactly similar to natural sunlight. However, fluorescent lamps are closer in color temperature to natural sunlight compared to incandescent lamps. LED lamps with a color temperature of around 5000-6500K are the closest artificial option to mimic natural sunlight.


Flouresecnt dyes are used in DNA electrophoresis?

Yes, fluorescent dyes are commonly used in DNA electrophoresis for visualizing DNA bands when they are exposed to ultraviolet (UV) light. These dyes bind to the DNA molecules to make them visible and easy to analyze. Examples of fluorescent dyes used in DNA electrophoresis include ethidium bromide and SYBR Green.


How do fluorescent lights light source works to make the colours?

A fluorescent lamp is a gas-discharge lamp that uses electricity to excite mercury vapor. The excited mercury atoms produce short-wave ultraviolet light that then causes a phosphor to fluoresce, producing visible light. The color a fluorescent lamp puts out is dependent on the type of phosphor it uses. Colored fluorescent lamps usually have a colored tube that together with the color rating produce the required color (red, blue, etc). Fluorescent lamps are sold by their 'color temperature'. 'Cool White' is 6500K and is somewhat bluish. 3000K is usually labeled 'Kitchen and Bath', which is a bright more natural light. All florescent tubes are labeled as to their color temperature, and some brands also have a scale showing just where it's color is on the spectrum of available colors.

What is the relationship between the fluorescent light emission spectrum and the color produced by a fluorescent light source?

The fluorescent light emission spectrum determines the colors produced by a fluorescent light source. Different elements in the phosphor coating of the bulb emit light at specific wavelengths, which combine to create the overall color of the light. The emission spectrum influences the perceived color of the light emitted by the bulb.


What color does argon produce in a fluorescent tube?

Argon gas by itself does not produce a specific color in a fluorescent tube. It is typically used as an inert gas filler in fluorescent tubes to prevent degradation of the electrodes and enhance the performance of the tube. The color produced in a fluorescent tube is usually due to the phosphor coating on the interior of the tube, which emits visible light when excited by ultraviolet radiation emitted from the tube's gas discharge.
