Autism spectrum disorders are life long and have been found to be prevalent in up to 1% of the adolescent population (Simonoff et al.‚ 2008). Many studies have shown that the prevalence of autism spectrum disorders have increased radically (Vismara & Rogers‚ 2008). However‚ there may be many cases not yet reported or diagnosed correctly. The disorder covers a range of individuals with impairments that change from one person to the next. One individual may have difficulty with language communication

describe the spectrum in the Terahertz range (1 THz = 1012). [1] The terahertz region of the spectrum lies on the border of where electronics and optics meet between the mm-wave and infrared bands (100 GHz-10 THz). THz wave could handle ultra broad band signals ‚ have very large absorption due to water or water vapours and are transparent through many materials (e.g. plastics ‚ papers‚ cloth and oil) that are opaque in visible and IR light. Many materials have a so called fingerprint spectrum in the

Over the past four years‚ the rate of autism diagnosed has increased over 30%. Autism spectrum disorder is a neurodevelopmental disorder in which the diagnosed exhibit social and behavioral deficits.

Look for “Broad-spectrum” label: The SPF number indicates protection only against UVB rays -- many sunscreens‚ even those with a high SPF‚ allow UVA rays to be absorbed by the skin. UVA protection is usually indicated by a "broad-spectrum" label. Look for this label to ensure the most well-rounded sun coverage. Broad-spectrum sunscreen ensures protection

Electromagnetic radiation is produced when charged particles of sufficient energy hit a material.
