stoft "Mathew, thanks. It's an interesting technique, though not without some added work to characterize a diffusion surface and assure bulb stability. I ..." | Read more » about 8 years ago
stoft "Gwill, thanks. I'll take a look. Dave, It appears you are looking to observe the effect of methylene blue on the 405nm carrier. If so, I'd suggest..." | Read more » about 8 years ago
