G01N 21/17

Systems in which incident light is modified in accordance with the properties of the material investigated (where the material investigated is optically excited causing a change in wavelength of the incident light G01N21/63)

Introduced: January 1980

Title

Titles differ between systems:

IPC: Systems in which incident light is modified in accordance with the properties of the material investigated

CPC: Systems in which incident light is modified in accordance with the properties of the material investigated (where the material investigated is optically excited causing a change in wavelength of the incident light G01N21/63)

Full Title

Full titles differ between systems:

IPC:

Investigating or analysing materials by the use of optical means, i.e. using sub-millimetre waves, infrared, visible or ultraviolet light > Systems in which incident light is modified in accordance with the properties of the material investigated

CPC:

Investigating or analysing materials by the use of optical means, i.e. using sub-millimetre waves, infrared, visible or ultraviolet light (G01N3/00 - G01N19/00 take precedence) > Systems in which incident light is modified in accordance with the properties of the material investigated (where the material investigated is optically excited causing a change in wavelength of the incident light G01N21/63)

CPC subdivides this area 3x more granularly than IPC with 13 additional codes.

13 codes are CPC-only extensions.

Note: 10 CPC extensions are marked as secondary classification only.

4 shared codes have differing titles between IPC and CPC.
