Transmittance







Earth's atmospheric transmittance over 1 nautical mile sea level path (infrared region[1]). Because of the natural radiation of the hot atmosphere, the intensity of radiation is different from the transmitted part.




Transmittance of ruby in optical and near-IR spectra. Note the two broad blue and green absorption bands and one narrow absorption band on the wavelength of 694 nm, which is the wavelength of the ruby laser.


Transmittance of the surface of a material is its effectiveness in transmitting radiant energy. It is the fraction of incident electromagnetic power that is transmitted through a sample, in contrast to the transmission coefficient, which is the ratio of the transmitted to incident electric field.[2]


Internal transmittance refers to energy loss by absorption, whereas (total) transmittance is that due to absorption, scattering, reflection, etc.

Mathematical definitions



Hemispherical transmittance


Hemispherical transmittance of a surface, denoted T, is defined as[3]


T=ΦetΦei,{displaystyle T={frac {Phi _{mathrm {e} }^{mathrm {t} }}{Phi _{mathrm {e} }^{mathrm {i} }}},}T={frac {Phi _{mathrm {e} }^{mathrm {t} }}{Phi _{mathrm {e} }^{mathrm {i} }}},

where



  • Φet is the radiant flux transmitted by that surface;

  • Φei is the radiant flux received by that surface.



Spectral hemispherical transmittance


Spectral hemispherical transmittance in frequency and spectral hemispherical transmittance in wavelength of a surface, denoted Tν and Tλ respectively, are defined as[3]



e,νe,νi,{displaystyle T_{nu }={frac {Phi _{mathrm {e} ,nu }^{mathrm {t} }}{Phi _{mathrm {e} ,nu }^{mathrm {i} }}},}T_{nu }={frac {Phi _{mathrm {e} ,nu }^{mathrm {t} }}{Phi _{mathrm {e} ,nu }^{mathrm {i} }}},

e,λe,λi,{displaystyle T_{lambda }={frac {Phi _{mathrm {e} ,lambda }^{mathrm {t} }}{Phi _{mathrm {e} ,lambda }^{mathrm {i} }}},}T_{lambda }={frac {Phi _{mathrm {e} ,lambda }^{mathrm {t} }}{Phi _{mathrm {e} ,lambda }^{mathrm {i} }}},


where

=Le,ΩtLe,Ωi,{displaystyle T_{Omega }={frac {L_{mathrm {e} ,Omega }^{mathrm {t} }}{L_{mathrm {e} ,Omega }^{mathrm {i} }}},}T_{Omega }={frac {L_{mathrm {e} ,Omega }^{mathrm {t} }}{L_{mathrm {e} ,Omega }^{mathrm {i} }}},

where




  • Le,Ωt is the radiance transmitted by that surface;


  • Le,Ωi is the radiance received by that surface.



Spectral directional transmittance


Spectral directional transmittance in frequency and spectral directional transmittance in wavelength of a surface, denoted Tν,Ω and Tλ,Ω respectively, are defined as[3]



=Le,ΩtLe,Ωi,{displaystyle T_{nu ,Omega }={frac {L_{mathrm {e} ,Omega ,nu }^{mathrm {t} }}{L_{mathrm {e} ,Omega ,nu }^{mathrm {i} }}},}T_{nu ,Omega }={frac {L_{mathrm {e} ,Omega ,nu }^{mathrm {t} }}{L_{mathrm {e} ,Omega ,nu }^{mathrm {i} }}},

=Le,ΩtLe,Ωi,{displaystyle T_{lambda ,Omega }={frac {L_{mathrm {e} ,Omega ,lambda }^{mathrm {t} }}{L_{mathrm {e} ,Omega ,lambda }^{mathrm {i} }}},}T_{lambda ,Omega }={frac {L_{mathrm {e} ,Omega ,lambda }^{mathrm {t} }}{L_{mathrm {e} ,Omega ,lambda }^{mathrm {i} }}},


where

  • Le,Ω,νi is the spectral radiance received by that surface;


  • Le,Ω,λt is the spectral radiance in wavelength transmitted by that surface;


  • Le,Ω,λi is the spectral radiance in wavelength received by that surface.



Beer–Lambert law



By definition, transmittance is related to optical depth and to absorbance as


T=e−τ=10−A,{displaystyle T=e^{-tau }=10^{-A},}T=e^{-tau }=10^{-A},

where




  • τ is the optical depth;


  • A is the absorbance.


The Beer–Lambert law states that, for N attenuating species in the material sample,


T=e−i=1Nσi∫0ℓni(z)dz=10−i=1Nεi∫0ℓci(z)dz,{displaystyle T=e^{-sum _{i=1}^{N}sigma _{i}int _{0}^{ell }n_{i}(z)mathrm {d} z}=10^{-sum _{i=1}^{N}varepsilon _{i}int _{0}^{ell }c_{i}(z)mathrm {d} z},}T=e^{-sum _{i=1}^{N}sigma _{i}int _{0}^{ell }n_{i}(z)mathrm {d} z}=10^{-sum _{i=1}^{N}varepsilon _{i}int _{0}^{ell }c_{i}(z)mathrm {d} z},

or equivalently that



τ=∑i=1Nτi=∑i=1Nσi∫0ℓni(z)dz,{displaystyle tau =sum _{i=1}^{N}tau _{i}=sum _{i=1}^{N}sigma _{i}int _{0}^{ell }n_{i}(z),mathrm {d} z,}tau =sum _{i=1}^{N}tau _{i}=sum _{i=1}^{N}sigma _{i}int _{0}^{ell }n_{i}(z),mathrm {d} z,

A=∑i=1NAi=∑i=1Nεi∫0ℓci(z)dz,{displaystyle A=sum _{i=1}^{N}A_{i}=sum _{i=1}^{N}varepsilon _{i}int _{0}^{ell }c_{i}(z),mathrm {d} z,}A=sum _{i=1}^{N}A_{i}=sum _{i=1}^{N}varepsilon _{i}int _{0}^{ell }c_{i}(z),mathrm {d} z,


where




  • σi is the attenuation cross section of the attenuating specie i in the material sample;


  • ni is the number density of the attenuating specie i in the material sample;


  • εi is the molar attenuation coefficient of the attenuating specie i in the material sample;


  • ci is the amount concentration of the attenuating specie i in the material sample;


  • is the path length of the beam of light through the material sample.


Attenuation cross section and molar attenuation coefficient are related by


εi=NAln⁡10σi,{displaystyle varepsilon _{i}={frac {mathrm {N_{A}} }{ln {10}}},sigma _{i},}varepsilon _{i}={frac {mathrm {N_{A}} }{ln {10}}},sigma _{i},

and number density and amount concentration by


ci=niNA,{displaystyle c_{i}={frac {n_{i}}{mathrm {N_{A}} }},}c_{i}={frac {n_{i}}{mathrm {N_{A}} }},

where NA is the Avogadro constant.


In case of uniform attenuation, these relations become[4]


T=e−i=1Nσiniℓ=10−i=1Nεiciℓ,{displaystyle T=e^{-sum _{i=1}^{N}sigma _{i}n_{i}ell }=10^{-sum _{i=1}^{N}varepsilon _{i}c_{i}ell },}T=e^{-sum _{i=1}^{N}sigma _{i}n_{i}ell }=10^{-sum _{i=1}^{N}varepsilon _{i}c_{i}ell },

or equivalently



τ=∑i=1Nσiniℓ,{displaystyle tau =sum _{i=1}^{N}sigma _{i}n_{i}ell ,}tau =sum _{i=1}^{N}sigma _{i}n_{i}ell ,

A=∑i=1Nεiciℓ.{displaystyle A=sum _{i=1}^{N}varepsilon _{i}c_{i}ell .}A=sum _{i=1}^{N}varepsilon _{i}c_{i}ell .


Cases of non-uniform attenuation occur in atmospheric science applications and radiation shielding theory for instance.
