This paper presents results from an electronic interface that significantly improves the stability, power output, and spectral flexibility of light emitting diode (LED)-based systems used to excite fluorescence or other forms of luminescence. LEDs are an attractive alternative to conventional white-light sources used in fluorescence analysis because of reduced power of operation, enhanced modul...

 In this paper, the optical properties of gold nanoparticles investigated. For this purpose the scattering intensity of a laser beam incident on gold nanoparticles has been studied using Mie theory and their respective curves versus different parameters such as scattering angle, wavelength of the laser beam and the size of gold nanoparticles are plotted. Investigating and comparison of the depi...

depth of cure of composite material is restricted and it depends on many parameters such as thickness. the aim of this in-vitro study was to evaluate the depth of cure of two light-cured core build-up composites (quixfil and photocore) in different thicknesses, when cured for 60 seconds.the vickers microhardness measurements were made for each side of the top irradiated surfaces of 1,2,3,4,5,6,...

OBJECTIVE This study evaluated the depth of cure of five dental composites submitted to different light-curing modes. MATERIAL AND METHODS Canal-shaped cavities with 5mm of length were prepared on the buccal surfaces of extracted third molars, and restored using P-60, A-110, Admira, Z-250 and Supreme resin composites. Materials were light-cured from the top, according to three modes (Group 1-...

Comparative analyses of phenotypic and molecular traits of Arabidopsis thaliana grown under standardised conditions is still a challenge using climatic devices supplied with common light sources. These are in most cases fluorescent lights, which have several disadvantages such as heat production at higher light intensities, an invariable spectral output, and relatively rapid "ageing". This resu...

In this paper, GaN-based light-emitting diodes (LEDs) with photonic quasi-crystal (PQC) structure on p-GaN surface and n-side roughing by nano-imprint lithography are fabricated and investigated. At an injection current of 20 mA, the LED with PQC structure on p-GaN surface and n-side roughing increased the light output power of the InGaN/GaN multiple quantum well LEDs by a factor of 1.42, and t...

It is significant to understand the effect of the light intensity and temperature on output performance of the crystalline solar modules. Therefore, it is possible to evaluate the J-V curves of solar module under various environmental conditions. This paper discuses the effect of light intensity and temperature on performance parameters of mono-crystalline and poly-crystalline silicon solar mod...
