Examples

  • Field studies in both crop plants and trees suggest that the primary effects of increased UV-B irradiance are subtle, light-induced morphological responses that alter carbon allocation [22].

  • Deisseroth first wrote about the technique in 2005, followed by research in 2006 and 2007 showing light-induced neuron activation in living neurons and in living mammals.

  • Polystyrene, used as expanded foam in both building and packaging applications, also undergoes light-induced color changes.

    Infrastructure and climate in the Arctic 2009

  • I would surely go into some kind of hysterics that would be misinterpreted as interpretive dance or a flashing light-induced seizure.

  • However, arthropod eyes of this size are subject to light-induced retinal damage.

  • Other benefits may have been protection against the toxic effects of aldehydes resulting from light-induced oxidation of lens components, or generalized anti-oxidant and UV-filtering effects though sequestration of NAD(H) or retinoids in the lens (1, 28, 43, 44).

  • Another type of reaction studied with femtosecond technology is the light-induced conversion of a molecule from one structure to another, photoisomerisation.

  • CdTe cells do not show the light-induced instability found in amorphous silicon.

  • This is also partly because stacking reduces light-induced cell degradation.

  • Use of this configuration not only improves the overall efficiency of the cell but, in the case of amorphous silicon, results in a further increase in the overall efficiency of the individual cells because the thinner layers of material result in less light-induced degradation (International Energy Agency 1987; U.S. DOE 1991).
