AI Thread Summary
Brilliant Blue FCF is a dye with a visible spectrum cut-off at 628nm, but there is interest in its absorption characteristics beyond this range, specifically from 700nm to 1600nm. While some sources provide spectral data up to 750nm, they do not cover the infrared range. Users are encouraged to explore additional resources, such as PubChem and spectral libraries, for more comprehensive information on the dye's spectral response. The discussion highlights the potential for significant absorption outside the visible spectrum, similar to other pigments. Further research may be necessary to determine the dye's behavior in the infrared range.

This chemical here - http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Brilliant_Blue_FCFCan anyone tell me it's spectral response?

Specifically I was interested if this dye aborbs energy in the 700nm to 1600nm range of light.I know it says it has a cut-off for 628nm, but that is for the visible spectrum, many dyes/pigments have big spikes outside their visible cut off points, for example, cobalt blue and ultramarine pigments.

So I know that electrons are fundamental, there's no 'material' that makes them up, it's like talking about a colour itself rather than a car or a flower. Now protons and neutrons and quarks and whatever other stuff is there fundamentally, I want someone to kind of teach me these, I have a lot of questions that books might not give the answer in the way I understand. Thanks
