Preliminary Electro-Optic Evaluation of Prototype Surface Mode Liquid Crystal Shutter for Nuclear Flashblindness Protection.

摘要

A preliminary evaluation was performed on a prototype Surface Mode Liquid Crystal Shutter (SMLCS) device manufactured by Optical Shields, Inc., in order to determine whether such a device could provide equal or improved nuclear flashblindness protection (NFP) over the currently used EEU/2P lanthanum-modified lead zirconate titanate (PLZT) goggles manufactured by Honeywell.
