Ultraviolet irradiation advantages

Relatively simple spectra are obtained from spin adducts of the hindered nitroso-arenes, and these may be further refined by deuteration of the spin trap (Terabe et al., 1973). In spite of being substantially dimerized, even in dilute solution,6 nitrosodurene (ND) has two considerable advantages over MNP. Firstly, it is more reactive towards radical addition (Table 5, p. 33). Secondly, it is not sensitive to visible light, and even on ultraviolet irradiation any photodecomposition is apparently not a major source of nitroxides. 

The intensity or radiant power of a normal Raman band depends in a complex way on the polarizability of the molecule, the intensity of the source, and the concentration of the active group, as well as other factors. In the absence of absorption, the power of Raman emission increases with the fourth power of the frequency of the source.

Physical disinfection of drinking water is mainly carried out through photodegradation by ultraviolet radiation (UV). Because many pharmaceuticals have chromophores that absorb UV wavelength, UV irradiation can lead to some transformation. Comparing to chemical oxidation, such as chlorination, UV disinfection has an advantage of minimizing the formation of DBPs [73]. However, at a... 

In an FT-ICR instrument, fragmentation may be achieved by colliding ions with neutrals (CID) but various other strategies are available, such as collision with surfaces (surface-induced dissociation) or bombardment with ultraviolet or infrared radiation from a laser (ultraviolet photodissociation and multiphoton infrared photodissociation). Dissociation may also be achieved by the absorption of black-body radiation produced by a heated vacuum chamber walls (blackbody infrared dissociation). An advantage of these radiation-induced fragmentation methods is that gas pulses are no longer required. Sustained off-resonance irradiation is the preferred, radiation-based method for FT-ICR MS because it is the simplest to implement and tune. Very low energy and multiple excitation collisional activation techniques are also available.
