Monochromatic
Monochromatic refers to the property of light that has a single wavelength. In the context of physics, it is often used to describe light that has a single color. Monochromatic light sources can be found in various applications, including lasers, LEDs, and certain types of lamps.
Physics[edit | edit source]
In physics, monochromatic light is light consisting of a single wavelength, in contrast to polychromatic light, which contains light of multiple wavelengths. Monochromatic light waves are typically produced by lasers or LEDs.
Optics[edit | edit source]
In optics, a monochromatic aberration refers to an aberration that affects light of a single color. Monochromatic aberrations are caused by the optical system not being able to bring all the light rays to the same focal point, resulting in a blurred image.
Art and design[edit | edit source]
In art and design, monochromatic refers to a color scheme that is composed entirely of one color or shades of a single color. Monochromatic color schemes can be used to create a certain mood or atmosphere.
