photoluminescent material
material which exhibits photoluminescence as the result of exposure to optical radiation
Note 1 to entry: Photoluminescent materials absorb energy from optical radiation in the shorter wavelength regions of the visible spectrum and/or in the ultraviolet region and re-radiate some of this energy at longer wavelengths, producing narrow bands of emission in the visible region.
Note 2 to entry: See also "fluorescent material", "daylight fluorescent colour".
Note 3 to entry: This entry was numbered 17-908 in CIE S 017:2011.
