How natural light influences HSR drivers’ visual behavior [PDF]
Frontiers in Public HealthExisting studies have shown that the lighting environment is essential in influencing a driver’s visual behavior. Due to the pivotal role of high-speed railway (HSR) in worldwide transit, it is necessary to examine how HSR drivers’ visual behavior adjust

CMOS-Compatible High-Performance Silicon Nanowire Array Natural Light Electronic Detection System [PDF]
MicromachinesIn this article, we propose a novel natural light detector based on high-performance silicon nanowire (SiNW) arrays. We achieved a highly controllable and low-cost fabrication of SiNW natural light detectors by using only a conventional micromachined ...

Circadian Entrainment to the Natural Light-Dark Cycle Across Seasons and the Weekend [PDF]
Curr Biol, 2017 Summary Reduced exposure to daytime sunlight and increased exposure to electrical lighting at night leads to late circadian and sleep timing [1–3]. We have previously shown that exposure to a natural summer 14 hr 40 min:9 hr 20 min light-dark cycle ...

A natural light-driven inward proton pump [PDF]
Nat Commun, 2016 Light-driven outward H+ pumps are widely distributed in nature, converting sunlight energy into proton motive force. Here we report the characterization of an oppositely directed H+ pump with a similar architecture to outward pumps.
