  • Glowing Colors Lesson
    Glowing Colors Overview: Students explore how different materials absorb and emit light of different colors Essential Question: How can materials make light of different colors? Background: White light is composed of lights of different colors. Each color is carried by a light moving as a wave. Different materials reflect light of different colors, or they absorb light of other colors. If an object appears red, it because all the other colors besides red are absorbed and only red light is reflected. Some materials create light when they are energized by light, electricity, heat or by chemical reactions. This is called fluorescence. Some dyes or day-glo colors absorb light and emit a bright light of a new color like orange or yellow. Each wavelength of light carries energy. Ultraviolet light has the most energy and that is why it can give you a sunburn. A fluorescent light converts electricity into light which excites other chemicals coating the inside of the bulb which in turn create white light. Phosphorescence is a release of light that lasts for a period after the energy source is removed. Chemiluminescence is the emission of light from a chemical reaction for example the reaction of luminol with hydrogen peroxide in light sticks. Research Connection: Researchers spend much of their time manipulating chemicals and materials so they absorb or emit light in way that is needed for a device. It is desirable for solar cells to absorb all wavelengths of light so they can make full use of the solar spectrum. Similarly, LEDs can be adjusted so they emit light that matches our needs.

  • The Power of Light! Light and Luminescence Science
    The Power of Light! Light and Luminescence Science Friday Funday Laboratory Notebook Name: Team: Experiment #1: Chemiluminescence – Building a Glowstick Guess how glow sticks work before beginning the experiment. Background: During chemical reactions between substances energy may be released. In most cases, energy will be released in the form of heat. However, in some reactions, energy can instead be released in the form of light. In this experiment we’ll examine the phenomena known as chemiluminescence, wherein a reaction will release light but not heat. Procedure (Check off the circles as you complete): o Acquire 5 centrifuge tubes (10 mL) with caps. Label them A-E. o Acquire a small graduated cylinder. o Acquire the four dye packets, labeled: Eosin Y (Orange Dye) Rhodamine B (Red Dye) 9,10-bis(phenlethynl)anthracene (Green Dye) Fluorescein (Yellow Dye) o Measure 5 mL of Luminol into each of your 5 centrifuge tubes. o Pour the four dyes into individual centrifuge tubes; leave one centrifuge tube without dye. o Add 5 mL of 30% Hydrogen Peroxide into each centrifuge tube. o Cap the tubes tightly and shake. Safety Alert: Hydrogen Peroxide is toxic! Do not open the tube! Observations: Observe the different colors and intensities (bright, slightly bright, mostly dim, dim): Write your observations below in the tubes labeled A-E. A B C D E Compare the colors to the visible spectrum: What do the different wavelengths mean? Why are some of the reactions brighter than others? Do the tubes feel warm? Is there still energy being released? What kind of energy? Experiment #2: Fluorescence, Black Lights, and Sunscreen: Background: In the previous reaction, energy held in chemical bonds was converted to energy in the form of light.

  • Long Wave Ultraviolet Sources for Mineral Collectors by Don Newsome UV SYSTEMS, Inc
    Long Wave Ultraviolet Sources for Mineral Collectors By Don Newsome UV SYSTEMS, Inc. 1-19-03 INTRODUCTION Mineral collectors are now faced with a choice of three different wavelengths of long wave (LW) ultraviolet (UV) sources. Two of these, which peak at approximately 350 nm and 370 nm respectively, can have quite different effects on fluorescent minerals. This is especially noticeable in the calcite cleavage rhombs from Múzquiz, Coahuila, Mexico. Often lamps are not marked with their emission peak but there is a way that collectors can know whether their lamp is a 350 nm or a 370 nm lamp. Please note that I use “lamps” which is the engineering term; however others call them bulbs or tubes. I would like to propose the terms “LW350” and “LW370” for the two emissions of fluorescent ultraviolet lamps. The third wavelength is also discussed in this article. Spectral emission scans of the LW350 and LW370 lamps follow, along with charts of most of the different LW lamps on the market. By using these charts and using Mexican calcite as a discriminating test, collectors should be able to tell what wavelength of LW lamp they have. Awareness of the LW350 and LW370 distinction should also help collectors refine their own observations of mineral fluorescence. Another result of this investigation was the discovery that the Blacklight Blue (BLB) LW370 lamps available, those produced by Philips Lighting have a very low visible light component and are now recommended for fluorescent mineral displays. None of the other BLB lamps made by other manufacturers have the low visible light filters.

  • Introduction to Fluorescence
    Introduction to fluorescence Fluorescence and biotechnology - When you bring to mind something that is fluorescent, you probably think of a color so bright that it practically glows. In fact, things that are truly fluorescent actually do emit light. And light being a form of energy, that energy must be supplied from somewhere. Fluorescence is a phenomenon where energy is absorbed from one part of the electromagnetic spectrum and is then released as a different part of the electromagnetic spectrum—visible light. If you have ever seen things glow under a blacklight, you are familiar with the phenomenon of fluorescence. The blacklight emits ultraviolet light, a form of light Different fluorescent solutions illuminated using that your eye cannot see. The fluorescent colors UV light. Photo: Maxim Bilovitskiy absorb that ultraviolet light and release it back Creative Commons license CC 4.0) out as brilliant greens, oranges, and other colors. Many organisms have evolved to use fluorescent molecules, especially marine organisms living relatively close to the surface of the water. People also regularly use them in everyday life. Highlighters use fluorescent molecules to make important words stand out to you. Fluorescent lightbulbs save energy and light up our buildings. Fluorescent dyes help plumbers find leaks. In the biology laboratory, fluorescence is an incredibly important tool because it has afforded scientists a way to visualize structures that were previously invisible or indistinguishable. Fluorescent proteins, such as the green fluorescent protein (GFP) and red fluorescent protein (RFP) are regularly used to track happenings inside the cell by making otherwise invisible structures light up. Fluorescent molecules can also be attached to antibodies which will then bind to specific structures in the cell showing us their location, shape and structure.
