The article contains experiment to demonstrate fluorescent emission spectra of neon colored papers and plastic clipboards. The findings indicate that the shorter wavelength light is utilized by the “Daylight" pigment contained in these neon papers to enhance the reflected light in the longer wavelength regions thus making them appear brighter.
