Perceived glare from the sun behind tinted glazing: Comparing blue vs. color-neutral tints

Marilyne Andersen, Andreas Schueler, Jan Wienold, Sneha Jain, Maxime Lagier

While the influence of a glare source's spectrum on sensitivity to discomfort glare has been demonstrated repeatedly under electric light conditions, it has not yet been studied under actual daylit conditions. To investigate the influence of spectral alter ...

Photochemical Alkynylations with Hypervalent Iodine Reagents

Stephanie Grace Elizabeth Amos

Over the past twenty years, photochemical transformations have gained in importance in organic chemistry. Indeed, the development of photocatalysts has allowed the use of visible light as an energy source for chemical transformations. More specifically, ph ...

Alertness in work environments : on the role of indoor daylight exposure

Victoria Eugenia Soto Magán

Light enables to see the world around us, while playing a key role in our biological functioning. During the last decades, light has become an important research topic for chronobiologists and neuroscientists, and their findings are increasingly interwoven ...

Species-species interactions modulate copper toxicity under different visible light conditions

Valérie Gagnaux

Combination of biotic and abiotic factors influences the effects of naturally occurring or anthropogenic chemicals on photosynthetic microorganisms in the aquatic environment. Nonetheless, the combined effects of physical stressors and species-species inte ...

Electroluminescence of Single InGaN/GaN Micropyramids

Hua Zhang, Gwénolé Jean Jacopin

The results of the fabrication of technological regimes of formation and the study of the optical properties of light emitting diodes (LED) micropyramids based on InGaN/GaN are presented. The structures were formed by the method of Metalorganic vapour-phas ...

Elucidating the role of the InGaN UL in the efficiency of InGaN based light-emitting diodes

Camille Haller

Blue III-nitride light-emitting diodes (LEDs) are widely used nowadays in solid-state lighting, as white light can be produced by combining yellow phosphors and blue LEDs. This technology has the advantage to have a higher luminous efficiency than incandes ...

High light intensity mediates a shift from allochthonous to autochthonous carbon use in phototrophic stream biofilms

Tom Ian Battin, Amber Joy Ulseth

Changes in the riparian vegetation along stream channels, diurnal light availability, and longitudinal fluctuations in the local light regime in streams influence primary production and carbon (C) cycling in benthic stream biofilms. To investigate the infl ...

Light-driven model for identifying indicators of non-visual health potential in the built environment

María Lovísa Ámundadóttir

This thesis introduces a new approach to characterize and evaluate ocular light exposure based on the discovery of novel blue light-sensitive photoreceptors in the human eye. These photoreceptors are the primary mediators of 'non-visual' responses impactin ...

Light wavelength-dependent E. coli survival changes after simulated solar disinfection of secondary effluent

César Pulgarin, Sami Rtimi, Stefanos Giannakis

In this study, the photoreactivation and the modification of dark repair of E. coli in a simulated secondary effluent were investigated after initial irradiation under different conditions. The simulated solar exposure of the secondary wastewater was follo ...

Development of a Localization System Based on VLC Technique for an Indoor Environment

Kwang Moo Yi

In this paper, we develop an indoor localization device which embeds localization information into indoor light-emitting-diodes (LED) lighting systems. The key idea of our device is the use of the newly proposed "bit stuffing method". Through the use of st ...

Improving the quality of filament-impaired images in Kerr media by statistical averaging

Demetri Psaltis, Alexandre Goy

In focusing Kerr media, small- scale filamentation is the major obstacle to imaging at high light intensities. In this article, we experimentally and numerically demonstrate a method based on statistical averaging to reduce the detrimental effects of filam ...

Investigation of indium-rich InGaN alloys and kinetic growth regime of GaN

Nils Asmus Kristian Kaufmann

Nowadays, light emitting diodes (LEDs) and laser diodes (LDs) are part of our daily life. More and more devices incorporate InGaN-based optoelectronic devices. In fact, since the first demonstration of a candela-class InGaN-based LED in the beginning of th ...

Effects of prior light exposure on early evening performance, subjective sleepiness, and hormonal secretion

Jean-Louis Scartezzini, Mirjam Münch, Friedrich Linhart, Apiparn Borisuit

In sighted humans, light intensity, timing, exposure duration, and spectral composition of light are important to entrain the endogenous circadian pacemaker to the 24-h day-night cycle. We tested the impact of two realistic office lighting conditions durin ...

Fully integrated ultra-low power management system for micro-power solar energy harvesting applications

Maher Kayal, François Krummenacher, Naser Khosro Pour

A fully integrated, area-efficient and ultra-low power management system for micro-power solar energy harvesting applications is proposed. This system harvests energy from miniaturised solar cells connected in series to charge a rechargeable microbattery. ...

Hiding patterns with daylight fluorescent inks

Roger Hersch, Romain Rossier

We propose a method for hiding patterns within printed images by making use of classical and of two daylight fluorescent magenta and yellow inks. Under the D65 illuminant we establish in the CIELAB space the gamut of a classical cmyk printer and the gamut ...

Comparison of objective and subjective visual comfort and associations with non-visual functions in young subjects

Jean-Louis Scartezzini, Jérôme Henri Kämpf, Mirjam Münch, Friedrich Linhart, Apiparn Borisuit

Visual comfort is a key element at work places and at home. Besides task illuminance and color rendering it is the indoor light distribution, which strongly impacts visual comfort. We aimed to show possible relations between subjective and objective visual ...

Microcavity light emitting diodes in the visible red and near infrared wavelength range

It was about 125 years ago that the light bulb was commercialized by Thomas Edison. No doubt a brilliant invention at the time, today its low power conversion efficiency is one of the reasons why lighting in the western world has such high energy consumpti ...
