ISO 7944:2024
Optics and photonics - Reference wavelengths
This document specifies reference wavelengths to be used for the characterization of optical materials, optical systems and instruments, and ophthalmic lenses. It defines the associated principal refractive indices and principal dispersions, as well as the Abbe numbers with regard to these reference wavelengths and principal dispersions.

La présente Norme internationale définit deux longueurs d'onde de référence qui doivent être utilisées pour la caractérisation des matériaux optiques, des systèmes et des instruments d'optique, ainsi que des verres ophtalmiques. Elle définit les indices de réfraction principaux et les dispersions principales associées, ainsi que les nombres d'Abbe par rapport à ces longueurs d'onde de référence et aux dispersions principales.
The Requirements department helps you quickly locate within the normative text:
- mandatory clauses to satisfy,
- non-essential but useful clauses to know, such as permissions and recommendations.
The identification of these types of clauses is based on the document “ISO / IEC Directives, Part 2 - Principles and rules of structure and drafting of ISO documents ”as well as on a constantly enriched list of verbal forms.
With Requirements, quickly access the main part of the normative text!
