Photonic materials (PMs) that are capable of manipulating and controlling light in systems have immense potential for the computing and communications industries. These materials are formed by assembling components of differing refractive indices in a periodic array. Light then interacts with this assembly, which results in constructive and destructive interference, and hence color. While many ...

We examine the relationship between environment and the luminosities, surface brightnesses, colors, and profile shapes of luminous galaxies in the Sloan Digital Sky Survey (SDSS). For the SDSS sample, galaxy color is the galaxy property most predictive of the local environment. Galaxy color and luminosity—measures of the star formation history—jointly comprise the most predictive pair of proper...

Structural color arises from the patterning of geometric features or refractive indices of the constituent materials on the length-scale of visible light. Many different organisms have developed structurally colored materials as a means of creating multifunctional structures or displaying colors for which pigments are unavailable. By studying such organisms, scientists have developed artificial...

The aims of this study consist on anthocyans isolation from black grapes skin by different extraction methods in order to select the best choice, as well as the spectrophotometric characterization of anthocyans extracts (quantitative analysis, indices for pigment degradation, color density, polymeric color and stability study during time at ambient temperature). The study is justified by two ma...

The image quality depends on level of intensities used in images. Image is consists of various types of objects. Objects in the images are distinguishable because of various intensity levels used. The concentration of intensity levels so called energy can be extracted from image using discrete cosine transform (DCT). In this paper we apply DCT 8x8 block coefficients separately on three differen...

An extensive survey was conducted on 110 Italian monovarietal red wines from a single vintage to determine their standard compositional, color, and phenolic characteristics, analysing more than 35 parameters evaluated through methods commonly used in the wine industry. ‘Primitivo’ achieved highest average alcohol strength (15.4% v/v) dry extract values, while ‘Cannonau’ showed lowest total acid...

background: although color doppler ultrasonography (cdus) is useful in the diagnosis of various diseases of the head and neck, flow signals in oral malignant masses are less studied; hence the present study assesses the usefulness of color doppler ultrasonography in quantifying oral squamous cell carcinoma (oscc) vascularization. in addition, we determine the hemodynamic parameters by spectral ...
