XVIII.—On the Bands formed by the Superposition of Paragenic Spectra produced by the Grooved Surfaces of Glass and Steel.* Part I
Published online by Cambridge University Press: 17 January 2013
Extract
In examining the colours produced by thin laminæ of the crystalline lens of fishes, I observed a series of rectilineal serrated fringes perpendicular to the direction of the fibres, and produced by inclining the laminæ in a plane cutting these fibres at right angles. I was thus led to imitate these fringes or bands by combining grooves or striæ cut upon glass or steel surfaces, or grooves taken from these surfaces upon isinglass or gums.
