An invisible band of radiation with wavelengths from 400 to 10 nm, ultraviolet (UV) light starts at the end of visible light and ends at the beginning of X-rays. The primary source of ultraviolet ...

Using LEDs has the potential to bring down the cost of biomanufacturing, allowing such processes to make materials that previously would have been too expensive.

We cannot see ultraviolet (UV) light but it can have hazardous effects on the human body. Ultraviolet light in sunlight can cause the skin to tan or burn. Fluorescent substances are used in energy ...

Unlike mammals, most birds are tetrachromatic, meaning that they can see in both the visible and ultraviolet (UV) spectrum. Facilities lacking UV light deprive birds of a range of colors that are a ...

A new publication in Opto-Electronic Science discusses boosting UV light absorption in a 2D semiconductor with quantum dot hybrids for enhanced light emission. Two-dimensional (2D) transition ...
