  • 1 LIGHT PHYSICS Light and Lighting Francesco Anselmo Light Intro Light Animates and Reveals Architecture
    1 LIGHT PHYSICS Light and Lighting Francesco Anselmo Light intro Light animates and reveals architecture. Architecture cannot fully exist without light, since without light there would be nothing to see. Yet in architectural design light is usually either expected from nature or developed as an add-on attachment very late in the design process. The course explores the symbiotic relationship between architecture and light. As much as light can reveal architecture, architecture can animate light, making it bounce, scatter, refract, altering its spectrum and colour perception, absorbing it or reflecting it, modulating its path and strength in both space and time. It aims at developing a sensibility and intuition to the qualities of light, whilst giving the physical and computational tools to explore and validate design ideas. 4 7 1 2 5 3 6 1 LIGHT PHYSICS 4 LIGHT ELECTRIC 7 LIGHT CONNECTED 2 LIGHT BIOLOGY 5 LIGHT ARCHITECTURE 3 LIGHT NATURAL 6 LIGHT VIRTUAL Reading list Books Free online resources Bachelard, Gaston.

  • M7 Electroluminescence of Polymers
    Universität Potsdam Institute of Physics and Astronomy Advanced Physics Lab Course March 2020 M7 ELECTROLUMINESCENCE OF POLYMERS I. INTRODUCTION The recombination of holes and electrons in a luminescent material can produce light. This emitted light is referred to as electroluminescence (EL) and was discovered in organic single crystals by Pope, Magnante, and Kallmann in 1963.[1] EL from conjugated polymers was first reported by Burroughes et al.[2] The polymer used was poly(p-phenylenevinylene) (PPV). Since then, a variety of other polymers has been investigated. Organic EL devices have applications in a wide field ranging from multi-color displays and optical information processing to lighting. Polymers have the advantage over inorganic and monomolecular materials in the ease with which thin, structurally robust and large area films can be perpared from solutions. Using printing techniques, patterned structures can be produced easily. Even flexible displays can be produced because of the good mechanical properties of polymers. In this lab course, basic optical and electrical properties of conjugated polymers will be investigated. Advanced Lab Course: Electroluminescence of Polymers 2 EXPERIMENTAL TASKS Measure the absorption spectra of your polymers (thin films spin coated onto glass substrates).

  • Ultraviolet – Visible Spectroscopy for Determination of Α- and Β-Acids in Beer Hops Katharine Chau Lab Partner: Logan Bi
    Ultraviolet – Visible Spectroscopy for Determination of α- and β-acids in Beer Hops Katharine Chau Lab Partner: Logan Billings TA: Kevin Fischer Date lab performed: 3/20/2018 Date report submitted: 4/9/2018 ABSTRACT: In this experiment, the content of α- and β-acids in beer hops is found through UV-Vis spectroscopic analysis. Three samples will be prepared by extracting finely grained hops through methanol and diluting with methanolic NaOH. The spectrums obtained give a constant overall shape. The experiment was done to find out the concentration of the third component from degraded α- and β-acids that is also existing in the hops samples with the help of the calculated concentrations of α- and β-acids. From the calculated results, the average concentration of the third component in all three samples was 0.061 g/L. INTRODUCTION: UV-Vis spectroscopy is a useful absorption or reflectance spectroscopy that helps determine the quantity of analytes by detecting the absorptivity or reflectance of a sample under ultra-violet to visible light wavelength range (1). In this experiment, the absorptivity of the samples were measured and the content of different components were determined from the spectrum. In this lab, UV-Vis spectroscopy was used in to obtain absorbance spectrums of α- and β- acids found in difference hops samples. The structures of α- and β-acids are shown as the Fig. 1 below. Figure 1. Structures of major α- and β-acids found in hops By understanding the content of α-acid in the hops, the bitterness flavor of beer can be controlled since the bitterness is formed by the iso-form of α-acid through isomization of α-acid.

Licetus, 1640 (about the Bologna stone) 1.1 What Is Luminescence? The word luminescence, which comes from the Latin (lumen = light) was fi rst introduced as luminescenz by the physicist and science historian Eilhardt Wiede- mann in 1888, to describe “ all those phenomena of light which are not solely conditioned by the rise in temperature,” as opposed to incandescence. Lumines- cence is often considered as cold light whereas incandescence is hot light. Luminescence is more precisely defi ned as follows: spontaneous emission of radia- tion from an electronically excited species or from a vibrationally excited species not in thermal equilibrium with its environment. 1) The various types of lumines- cence are classifi ed according to the mode of excitation (see Table 1.1 ). Luminescent compounds can be of very different kinds: • Organic compounds : aromatic hydrocarbons (naphthalene, anthracene, phenan- threne, pyrene, perylene, porphyrins, phtalocyanins, etc.) and derivatives, dyes (fl uorescein, rhodamines, coumarins, oxazines), polyenes, diphenylpolyenes, some amino acids (tryptophan, tyrosine, phenylalanine), etc. + 3 + 3 + • Inorganic compounds : uranyl ion (UO 2 ), lanthanide ions (e.g., Eu , Tb ), doped glasses (e.g., with Nd, Mn, Ce, Sn, Cu, Ag), crystals (ZnS, CdS, ZnSe, CdSe, 3 + GaS, GaP, Al 2 O3 /Cr (ruby)), semiconductor nanocrystals (e.g., CdSe), metal clusters, carbon nanotubes and some fullerenes, etc. 1) Braslavsky , S. et al .

  • Power Area Density in Inverse Spectra
    Power Area Density in Inverse Spectra Matthias Rang1 and Johannes Grebe-Ellis2 1Forschungsinstitut am Goetheanum, Dornach 2Bergische Universität Wuppertal Abstract In recent years, inverse spectra were investigated with imaging optics and a quanti- tative description with radiometric units was suggested (Rang 2015). It could be shown that inverse spectra complement each other additively to a constant intensity level. Since optical intensity in radiometric units is a power area density, it can be expected that energy densities of inverse spectra also fulfill an inversion equation and complement each other. In this contribution we report findings on a measure- ment of the power area density of inverse spectra for the near ultraviolet, visible and the infrared spectral range. They show the existence of corresponding spectral re- gions ultra-yellow (UY) and infra-cyan (IC) in the inverted spectrum and thereby present additional experimental evidence for equivalence of inverse spectra beyond the visible range. Introduction In his theory of colour, Goethe described the observation that inverse optical contrasts, viewed through a prism, lead to complementary spectral phenomena (Goethe 1970, Müller 2015).1 This observation has been variously addressed and linked to the questions of whether the inverted spectrum can be physically applied (Kirschmann 1917, 1924) and whether the complementarity of spectral phenomena can be generalized experimentally (Bjerke 1961). Particular attention has been given to the problem of inverting Newton's Experimentum crucis, designed to demonstrate the purity of selected spectral re- gions (Holtsmark 1970, Sällström 2010). The philosophical discussion on Goethes theory of colour has been rekindled since Olaf Müller published his comprehensive work on Goethe, Newton and the controversy about colour theory (Müller 2015).

  • Absorption of Light Energy Light, Energy, and Electron Structure SCIENTIFIC
    Absorption of Light Energy Light, Energy, and Electron Structure SCIENTIFIC Introduction Why does the color of a copper chloride solution appear blue? As the white light hits the paint, which colors does the solution absorb and which colors does it transmit? In this activity students will observe the basic principles of absorption spectroscopy based on absorbance and transmittance of visible light. Concepts • Spectroscopy • Visible light spectrum • Absorbance and transmittance • Quantized electron energy levels Background The visible light spectrum (380−750 nm) is the light we are able to see. This spectrum is often referred to as “ROY G BIV” as a mnemonic device for the order of colors it produces. Violet has the shortest wavelength (about 400 nm) and red has the longest wavelength (about 650–700 nm). Many common chemical solutions can be used as filters to demonstrate the principles of absorption and transmittance of visible light in the electromagnetic spectrum. For example, copper(II) chloride (blue), ammonium dichromate (orange), iron(III) chloride (yellow), and potassium permanganate (red) are all different colors because they absorb different wave- lengths of visible light. In this demonstration, students will observe the principles of absorption spectroscopy using a variety of different colored solutions. Food coloring will be substituted for the orange and yellow chemical solutions mentioned above. Rare earth metal solutions, erbium and praseodymium chloride, will be used to illustrate line absorption spectra.
