The photoisomerization of para-methoxy methylcinnamate (p-MMC) has been studied by low-temperature matrix-isolation FTIR spectroscopy. In particular, the difference spectrum of the mid-IR frequency region (1100-1800 cm(-1)) allows us to distinguish the structural change before and after ultraviolet (UV) light irradiation at ≥300 nm and to convince that the cis-isomer is produced from the trans-...

Let G be a graph of order p and size q. An (a, d)-edge-antimagic total labeling of G is a one-to-one map f taking the vertices and edges onto 1, 2, . . . , p + q so that the edge-weights w(u, v) = f(u) + f(v) + f(uv), uv ∈ E(G), form an arithmetic progression, starting from a and having common difference d. Moreover, such a labeling is called super (a, d)edge-antimagic total if f(V (G)) = {1, 2...

mal thickness of 41.1 μm, whereas sites treated with vehicle alone measured an average of 22.6 μm, indicating a significant difference in epidermal thickness between aTd-treated groups and vehicle controls, Po0.001 (Mann– Whitney test, Figure 1e and f). In summary, we have demonstrated in vivo capabilities of aTds to initiate protect and repair response in non-UVexposed guinea pig skin. By mimi...

The interaction between N,N'-ethylenebis-[2-(o-hydroxyphenolic)glycine] (EHPG) and lanthanum was studied by the difference UV spectra and fluorescence spectra. At pH 7.4, 0.01 M N-2-hydroxyethylpiperazine-N-2-ethanesulfonic acid (Hepes), with the addition of 1.0 x 10(-3)M lanthanum, two new peaks were observed at 238 nm and 294 nm by absorptivity spectroscopy compared with blank solution EHPG s...

We report localised-surface-plasmon (LSP) enhanced deep-ultraviolet light-emitting diodes (deep-UV LEDs) using Al nanoparticles for LSP coupling. Polygonal Al nanoparticles were fabricated on the top surfaces of the deep-UV LEDs using the oblique-angle deposition method. Both the top- and bottom-emission electroluminescence of deep-UV LEDs with 279 nm multiple-quantum-well emissions can be effe...

Effect of ultraviolet (UV) light exposure on the resistive switching characteristics of a ITO/HfOx/TiN structure were investigated in this study. Samples exposed with and without ITO shield film exhibit distinct switching characteristics, including leakage current, I–V curves, set and reset voltage fluctuation. Based on random circuit network simulation by Liu et al., we suggest the distinction...

We present the UV composite luminosity function for galaxies in the Virgo, Coma and Abell 1367 clusters. The luminosity function (LF) is well fitted by a Schechter function with M * UV − 5 log h 75 = −20.75 ± 0.40 and α = −1.50 ± 0.10 and does not differ significantly from the local UV luminosity function of the field. This result is in agreement with recent studies carried out in the Hα and B-...
