Utilising shade to optimize UV exposure for vitamin D [PDF]

open access: yesAtmospheric Chemistry and Physics, 2008
Numerous studies have stated that humans need to utilise full sun radiation, at certain times of the day, to assist the body in synthesising the required levels of vitamin D<sub>3</sub>.

The UV spectrum of the Ultracool Dwarf LSR J1835+3259 observed with the Hubble Space Telescope [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
An interesting question about ultracool dwarfs recently raised in the literature is whether their emission is purely internally driven or partially powered by external processes similar to planetary aurora known from the solar system. In this work we present Hubble Space Telescope observations of the energy fluxes of the M8.5 ultracool dwarf LSR J1835 ...

Enhancing UV Stability and Charge Extraction in Organic Solar Cells with Phenyl‐Linked Aromatic Self‐Assembled Monolayer

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
The phenyl‐linked self‐assembled monolayer exhibits robust intrinsic stability and hole extraction capability compared to the alkyl‐linked counterparts, thus facilitating the device stability with T80 over 1000 h and efficiency of 19.7% in advancing organic solar cells.

A possible correlation between maxima of the far ultraviolet solar irradiance and central meridian passages of solar magnetic sector boundaries [PDF]

open access: yes
Satellite observations of the sun over almost 5 yrs show that principally two UV active longitudes have persisted over a significant portion of this observational period.

The magnetic future of the Sun

open access: yes, 2017
We analyze space- and ground-based data for the old ($7.0\pm0.3$~Gyr) solar analogs 16 Cyg A and B. The stars were observed with the Cosmic Origins UV Spectrographs on the Hubble Space Telescope (HST) on 23 October 2015 and 3 February 2016 respectively ...

Exploring Electronic States and Ultrafast Electron Dynamics in AlInP Window Layers: The Role of Surface Reconstruction

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
This study examines the surface characteristics of AlInP (001), crucial for advanced solar cells and photoelectrochemical devices. Using theoretical modeling and experiments, it identifies how phosphorus‐rich and indium‐rich surfaces create mid‐gap states that pin the Fermi level and influence ultrafast electron dynamics.

Effects of stratospheric ozone depletion, solar UV radiation, and climate change on biogeochemical cycling: interactions and feedbacks

open access: yesPhotochemical and Photobiological Sciences, 2014
Climate change modulates the effects of solar UV radiation on biogeochemical cycles in terrestrial and aquatic ecosystems, particularly for carbon cycling, resulting in UV-mediated positive or negative feedbacks on climate.

Flexible Leaf‐Like Fuel Cell From Plasmonic Janus Nanosheet

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
A flexible leaf‐like fuel cell is fabricated by conductive gold nanowire sponge‐supported plasmonic Janus nanosheet, which can generate a power of 8.93 mW cm⁻2 with less than 10% performance deterioration even being bent or twisted. Further assembly in a tree‐like layout demonstrates omnidirectional light harvesting capability and wind resistance ...

High intensity ultraviolet radiation induced changes in aquatic arthropod with retene and riboflavin

open access: yesEnvironment Conservation Journal, 2011
Ozone depletion is resulting into increase in ultraviolet radiation level in the world. Exposure to UV radiation has been found to have negative effects on aquatic and terrestrial organisms.
