As temperatures rise, you may hear more about ultraviolet (UV) light. But what exactly is it? UV light is a part of the electromagnetic spectrum located between visible light and X-rays. It has a ...

High-performance vertically illuminated Schottky photodiodes with indium-tin-oxide (ITO) Schottky layers were designed, fabricated, and tested. Ternary and quarternary III-V material systems ...

Abstract: We compare ultraviolet (UV) spectra of the recent soft X-ray transients XTE J1118+480 and XTE J1859+226. The emission line strengths in XTE J1118+480 strongly suggest that the accreting ...

Combining our UV spectra, NIR photometry, and high-cadence optical photometry, we construct a bolometric light curve, showing that SN 2013dy had a maximum luminosity of 10.0(-3.8)(+4.8) x 10(42) erg s ...

Broad-spectrum CBD contains other cannabinoids and terpenes, but no THC. Our team has vetted nearly 1,000 CBD products and tested about 125 of them to make recommendations on the best. We chose ...

With increasing attention across various research fields, the aromaticity of ions has emerged as a significant topic of interest. Magnetic-based criteria, such as NMR chemical shifts, and ...

Natural organic matter (NOM) regulates the mobility, speciation, and bioavailability of metal ions (Me) in the environment, but interactions between Me and NOM are not yet fully understood. This study ...

The spectra were obtained with an Ocean Optics spectrophotometer model USB-650 UV-VIS (Dunedin, USA) and using a 1 mm quartz cuvette. All spectra were obtained in the range from 200 to 400 nm (1 nm ...

UV-Vis-NIR reflectance spectra (250 to 1000 nm) were obtained using a 20/30 PV UV-Vis-NIR microspectrophotometer (CRAIC Technologies Inc., USA), with a minimum of five replicates per sample.
