Effect of Blue Light-Emitting Diode (LED) Irradiation on Chlorophyll Metabolism in Ethylene-Degreened Early-Season Satsuma Mandarin Fruit [PDF]

open access: yesShipin Kexue, 2023
Early-season Satsuma mandarin fruit produced in Chongqing are usually harvested when the flesh reaches the acceptable internal maturity standards, while the peel is still green. In order to solve this problem, ethylene degreening treatment is widely used

Colour change and assortment in the western rainbowfish [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
Grouping behaviour is widespread across the animal kingdom, and is known to reduce an individual's risk of predation, for example through predator confusion.

What Constitutes an Explanation in Biology? [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
One of biology's fundamental aims is to generate understanding of the living world around—and within—us. In this chapter, I aim to provide a relatively nonpartisan discussion of the nature of explanation in biology, grounded in widely shared ...

The Unique Origin of Colors of Armchair Carbon Nanotubes

open access: yes, 2011
The colors of suspended metallic colloidal particles are determined by their size-dependent plasma resonance, while those of semiconducting colloidal particles are determined by their size-dependent band gap.

On dispersion curve coloring for mechanical metafilters

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2022
AbstractThis paper formalizes smooth curve coloring (i.e., curve identification) in the presence of curve intersections as an optimization problem, and investigates theoretically properties of its optimal solution. Moreover, it presents a novel automatic technique for solving such a problem.

Double scattering of light from biophotonic nanostructures with short-range order

open access: yes, 2009
We investigate the physical mechanism for color production by isotropic nanostructures with short-range order in bird feather barbs. While the primary peak in optical scattering spectra results from constructive interference of singly-scattered light ...

Background matching, disruptive coloration, and differential use of microhabitats in two neotropical grasshoppers with sexual dichromatism

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, 2020
Cryptic coloration is an adaptative defensive mechanism against predators. Color patterns can become cryptic through background coloration‐matching and disruptive coloration.

Autonomous Light Management in Flexible Photoelectrochromic Films Integrating High Performance Silicon Solar Microcells [PDF]

open access: yes, 2020
Commercial smart window technologies for dynamic light and heat management in building and automotive environments traditionally rely on electrochromic (EC) materials powered by an external source.

Anisotropic Effects of Oxygen Vacancies on Electrochromic Properties and Conductivity of $\gamma$-Monoclinic WO$_3$ [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
Tungsten trioxide (WO$_3$) is a paradigmatic electrochromic material, whose peculiar optical properties in the presence of oxygen vacancies or intercalated alkali atoms have been observed and investigated for a long time.
