On the analogy between photoluminescence and carrier-type reversal in Bi- and Pb-doped glasses
Journal Article
carrier-type reversal in Bi- and Pb-doped glasses. Optics express, 21(7), 8101-8115. https://doi.org/10.1364/OE.21.008101

Reaction order in Bi-doped oxide glasses depends on the optical
basicity of the glass host. Red and NIR photoluminescence (PL) bands
result from Bi2+ and Bin clusters, respectively. Very similar centers are
present in Bi- and Pb-doped oxide and ch... Read More about On the analogy between photoluminescence and carrier-type reversal in Bi- and Pb-doped glasses.

Compositional dependence of the optical properties of bismuth doped lead-aluminum-germanate glass
Journal Article
Hughes, M., Suzuki, T., & Ohishi, Y. (in press). Compositional dependence of the optical properties of bismuth doped lead-aluminum-germanate glass. Optical Materials, 32(9), 1028-1034. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.optmat.2010.02.025

We report the compositional dependence of absorption, emission, decay constant and quantum efficiency
(QE) of GeO2:Al2O3:PbO:Bi2O3 glass with the aim of finding the composition most suitable for a laser gain
medium. As the Bi2O3 content was varied... Read More about Compositional dependence of the optical properties of bismuth doped lead-aluminum-germanate glass.

Constructors and innovation credits in green building projects
Journal Article
Li, Q., Syal, M., Turner, N., & Arif, M. Constructors and innovation credits in green building projects. Construction innovation (London. Online), 13(3), 320-338. https://doi.org/10.1108/CI-Dec-2011-0076

Purpose – As green buildings have become more widely accepted, constructors (general contractors, construction managers and subcontractors) have become more involved and are playing an increasing role in the success of these projects. As a result, co... Read More about Constructors and innovation credits in green building projects.

Colour accuracy in digitally-printed textiles: what you see is not (always) what you get
Journal Article
Collis, A. M., & Wilson, J. Colour accuracy in digitally-printed textiles: what you see is not (always) what you get. Journal of the International Colour Association, 9, 20-31

One problem faced when digitally printing textiles is ensuring that the colours of the final printed output are a satisfactory match to those of the design on a computer monitor or the original artwork. In other words, that there is a close enough ma... Read More about Colour accuracy in digitally-printed textiles: what you see is not (always) what you get.

The characterisation of flavone-DNA isoform interactions as a basis for anticancer drug development
Journal Article
Ragazzon, P., Bradshaw, T., Mathews, C., Iley, J., & Missailidis, S. The characterisation of flavone-DNA isoform interactions as a basis for anticancer drug development. Anticancer Research, 29(6), 2273-2283

BACKGROUND:

The interactions of small molecules with nucleic acids are of considerable interest for the design of novel anticancer compounds. The physical properties and sequence specificity observed in the interactions between a group of flavonoi...
