Introducing different atoms into TiO 2 crystal lattice is a famous method to improve photocatalytic activity of TiO 2 under visible-light irradiation. In this paper, Nitrogen ( N ) and fluorine ( F ) co -doped TiO 2 powders were prepared by mixing TiCl 3 solutions with ammonium fluoride ( NH 4 F ). In preparation, we used NH 3- H 2 O solution for adjustment of pH values (pH 2, 7, and 9) of mixed solution. X-ray diffraction (XRD) indicated N , F - TiO 2 powders prepared at pH7 and pH9 contained only anatase phase, but the powders prepared at pH2 contained both anatase and rutile phase. The result of XRD also indicated N , F - TiO 2 powders prepared at pH7 had the smallest crystallite size. We measured photocatalytic activity of prepared N , F - TiO 2 powders by the decomposition of methylene blue. N , F - TiO 2 powder prepared at pH7 and pH9 showed same high photocatalytic activity under ultraviolet light irradiation (peak wave length = 352 nm). Furthermore, under green light LED irradiation (wave length = 525 nm), a sample prepared at pH7 decomposed methylene blue more quickly than any other samples. As the result, N , F - TiO 2 prepared at pH7 had the best catalytic activity under both UV-light and visible light in the all of N , F - TiO 2 prepared and reference TiO 2 photocatalyst (ST-01 produced by Ishihara Co. Ltd).

Flies are Arthropoda insects that belong to the order of Diptera. Flies can transmit the disease through allthe limbs such as feces, vomit, body hair, limb hair and especially on the legs that have fine hairs so that theseeds of the disease can stick. Flies have a life activity interacting with a place that is a habitat for diseasessuch as trash, feces and carcasses. Plus its ability to fly 1-2 miles of several species of flies can spreadseveral diseases such as Thgypoid Fever, Parathypoid, bacillary dysentery, amoebic dysentery, and severaleye diseases from various places that have been visited. Flies are insects in general having sensitivity todifferent light wavelengths (colors). This research is a field experiment and includes a Pre Experiment that isPostest Only Design which aims to analyze differences in the density of flies that land on Fly Grill which aredifferent colors in Singa Kabanjahe Tax to plan control efforts which are about when, where and howcontrol will be carried out. in the Singa Kabanjahe Tax TPS for 10 days and the number of flies perched withdifferent fly grill colors (orange, pink, light blue, light green and yellow) for 30 seconds, calculating 10 timesthe calculation with the highest average. The data obtained were analyzed by ANOVA test with an error rateof 0.05. From the ANOVA test data with = 0.05 shows p = 0.221, which means that there is no difference indensity of flies perched on a different color fly grill. The average density of flies, from the lowest to thehighest is as follows: fly grill in orange, light green, light blue, pink and yellow ... The conclusion that can bedrawn is that flies do not like orange, light green and light blue. Meanwhile, the color favored by flies isyellow

Nano-crystals of ZnO, Eu3+ doped ZnO, and Li+, Eu3+ co-doped ZnO have been prepared by urea hydrolysis in ethylene glycol medium at 150 °C. Ethylene glycol acts as capping agent for nanoparticles. Three colors 437 (blue), 540 (green) and 615 nm (red) from 2 at.% Li+ and 5 at.% Eu3+ co-doped ZnO have been observed from luminescence studies compared to that from 5 at.%. Eu3+ doped ZnO, which shows emission at 437 and 615 nm. It is established that green light is originated from the oxygen vacancy brought by Li+ incorporation into ZnO. Particles are re-dispersible in organic solvent such as ethanol, and are able to incorporate into polymer-based material such as SiO2 matrix.

The influence of three different colors of light; blue, green and red, compared with white light as the control, on the rooting of <i>Chrysanthemum</i> cuttings, is presented in this paper. The mother plants and cuttings were irradiated during rooting with different colors of light. This was shown to have had visible influence on the morphological differentiation of cuttings. It also affected the carbohydrate content in them. The rooting of the cuttings reflected this influence. The cuttings obtained from plants grown under white (control) or red light were characterized by well-developed root systems in terms of the number, length and mass of the roots. The cuttings from the plants grown under green light were the worst. The influence of the color of the light on the speed with which the first roots were formed was the reverse. The cuttings from the plants irradiated with green light rooted the quickest, next in order were those from plants irradiated with blue, red and white light. Irradiating cuttings with differently colored light during rooting only had an effect on the number of roots formed. This number was high, close to that of control cuttings, in cuttings exposed to red light, decidedly lower in those exposed to blue and, in particular, green light.

In the course of our investigations on the biology of flies, during the year 1912, a certain number of experiments were performed in order to ascertain whether house-flies possess any colour preference. In the case of mosquitoes, Nuttall (1901) has shown that these insects have a very well-defined preference for certain colours. When a number of boxes, lined with different coloured materials, were placed in a tent containing mosquitoes, the latter occurred most frequently on navy-blue, and, in descending order, on dark red, brown, scarlet, black, slate-grey, dark green, violet, leaf-green, blue, pearl-grey, pale green, light blue, ochre, white, orange, and yellow. Very few insects indeed were found to rest on the last seven colours.

The influence of tank color on the visual perception of fish larvae and the success of their cultivation depends on the characteristics of each species combined with environmental factors. In this study, we determined the effect of light and dark tank colors on the larviculture of pacamã (Lophiosilurusalexandri), a species with a benthonic habit, and curimatá-pioa (Prochilodus costatus), which swims actively in the water column. Larvae of pacamã and curimatá-pioa were cultivated for 10 days in 5-L tanks, at a density of 15 larvae L-1 and luminosity of 141.7 ± 8.95 lux, and fed Artemia nauplii. Four tank colors were used: green, light blue, brown, and black (with four replications). Survival, biomass and Fulton's condition factor for pacamã larvae were similar in the different colored tanks. However, the larvae in the green tanks showed lower weight than those cultivated in black and brown tanks, as well as shorter total length than that of larvae in the brown-colored tanks. These results are probably due to the association between tank color and benthonic habitat of the pacamã. For the curimatá-pioa, survival and biomass were similar for the different colors. The weight and Fulton's condition factor were higher for the larvae cultivated in green and blue tanks. This result could be associated with the adaptation of curimatá-pioa larvae to active swimming in the water column, searching for prey.
