Buying Laser Viewing Cards
Laser viewing cards are frequently used in laser laboratories and industrial settings for checking the positions of infrared laser beams. They may work based on phosphorescence, upconversion fluorescence, or direct generation of fluorescence light. There are also thermochromic materials for beam visualization.
