Light lab Pchem

Welcome to the Light lab.

In the introductory chapter we were exposed to a series of experiments that were not appropriately described by the current theory, ie. classical mechanics. These experiments lead to the development of quantum mechanics. Many of these experiments involved "light." In this lab activity we will explore light at a deeper level.

Examples

iPhone Night Shift

In iOS 9.3, Apple introduced iPhone users to a feature known as "Night Shift." Night Shift alters the cool light of the iPhone to contain warmer hues, believing that the blue light prevents users from sleeping well at night. This feature can be analyzed by a Fiber Optic UV-Vis Spectrometer.
