Asking for guidance on the physics of light spectrum

AI Thread Summary
Maher, who specializes in soil physics and mechanics, is seeking resources on the separation and intensification of ultraviolet (UV) light from the sunlight spectrum. He is looking for books or articles that detail methods for UV separation and techniques to enhance UV ray production. The discussion reveals a lack of immediate responses, with one participant noting the need for research before providing answers. There is a suggestion that Maher's inquiry could relate to creating a UV laser or other applications, though this is speculative. The thread emphasizes the importance of patience while waiting for knowledgeable contributions.

Hi guys,

My name is Maher, and I am not new to physics...I am specialized in Soil physics and mechanics...However, I have recently developed an interest in light physics...

I am searching for a book or articles on Ultraviolet, in particular the separation and intensification of the Ultraviolet...In other words, I am seeking a reference for Ultraviolet separation from the light spectrum (sun light) and also references on methods to intensify the produced Ultraviolet rays..

Thanks in advance for your kind replies...Maher

Sorry about that, but sometimes things have to be researched before an answer can be given. That can take a while. In my case, I have not done so because this is the first time that I've seen this thread. Also, I know nothing about the subject.
It seems to me that you are trying to either make a UV laser (but not by actual lasing) or induce skin cancer in someone that you don't like, but that's just because my mind works in peculiar ways.
Someone educated in this field will likely be along shortly. Just be patient.

Thread 'A quartet of epi-illumination methods'

Well, it took almost 20 years (!!!), but I finally obtained a set of epi-phase microscope objectives (Zeiss). The principles of epi-phase contrast is nearly identical to transillumination phase contrast, but the phase ring is a 1/8 wave retarder rather than a 1/4 wave retarder (because with epi-illumination, the light passes through the ring twice). This method was popular only for a very short period of time before epi-DIC (differential interference contrast) became widely available. So...

Thread 'Effective absorption coefficient of gold nanoparticles'

I am currently undertaking a research internship where I am modelling the heating of silicon wafers with a 515 nm femtosecond laser. In order to increase the absorption of the laser into the oxide layer on top of the wafer it was suggested we use gold nanoparticles. I was tasked with modelling the optical properties of a 5nm gold nanoparticle, in particular the absorption cross section, using COMSOL Multiphysics. My model seems to be getting correct values for the absorption coefficient and...
