xopto.materials.ri.sucrose module¶

class Naglic(t: float = 293.15)[source]¶

Bases: xopto.materials.ri.base.RefractiveIndex

Refractive index of sucrose as given/used in:: “P. Naglič, Y. Zelinskyi, B. Likar, and B. Miran. Determination of refractive index, size, and solid content of monodisperse polystyrene microsphere suspensions for the characterization of optical phantoms, BOE, Vol. 11, Issue 4, 1901-18 (2020)”

Parameters: t (float) – Default temperature (K) of the medium. Defaults to 293.15 K (20 C).

check_brix(brix: float)[source]¶

Check if the Brix value is within valid range and display a warning if not.

Parameters: brix (float or np.ndarray) – Degree Brix value (1 Brix equals 1 g of sucrose in 100 g of solution). Defaults to 0 Brix, i.e. pure water.

is_valid_brix(brix: float) → bool[source]¶

Check if the Brix value is within the valid range.

Parameters: brix (float or np.ndarray) – Degree Brix value (1 Brix equals 1 g of sucrose in 100 g of solution). Defaults to 0 Brix, i.e. pure water.
Returns: valid – True if the Brix value is within the valid range.
Return type: bool
