Artificial Daylight Illumination for Perimetric Study and General Office Use [PDF]
Abstract The methods of making artificial light to imitate daylight are mentioned, and the superior comfort of such illumination and its usefulness in giving normal color values are referred to. The advantage for perimetric tests is largely in the constancy of such illumination and its availability at all times.

Alternatives to Outdoor Daylight Illumination for Photodynamic Therapy—Use of Greenhouses and Artificial Light Sources [PDF]
Daylight-mediated photodynamic therapy (daylight PDT) is a simple and pain free treatment of actinic keratoses. Weather conditions may not always allow daylight PDT outdoors. We compared the spectrum of five different lamp candidates for indoor “daylight PDT” and investigated their ability to photobleach protoporphyrin IX (PpIX).

Daylighting Evaluation of Perforated Screen Façade with Light Shelf in the Tropics
The use of large glass facades in buildings without external shading devices leads to a high daylight level, uneven daylight distribution, and glare. A perforated screen facade (PSF) is one of the shading systems that can provide daylight and view and ...
