Emerging Trends in Photobiology: Exploring the Photophysics and Photobiology of the Eye
Abstract: The eye consists of three main segments: the cornea, lens, and retina. The primary function of the anterior ocular tissue, the cornea and lens, is to transmit and focus light onto the retina without distortion. They also filter UV light (under 400 nm), preventing it from reaching the retina. While light reaching the retina is mostly used for vision, it can also have various effects on the eye's constituents, both …

Multifunctional and Photocatalytic Properties of DyFeO₃/Dy₃Fe₅O₁₂ Biphasic Nanoparticles
Abstract: Rare-earth orthoferrites constitute a class of compounds that exhibit remarkable magnetic, optical, and electronic properties across a wide temperature range. In the present study, a dysprosium-based orthoferrite containing dual phases of DyFeO₃ perovskite and Dy₃Fe₅O₁₂ garnet was successfully synthesized via the co-precipitation technique. X-ray diffraction (XRD) analysis was employed to investigate the structural configuration of the synthesized material. The diffraction pattern confirmed the formation of a biphasic composite comprising orthorhombic …
