Efficient photochemical generation of peroxycarboxylic nitric anhydrides with ultraviolet light-emitting diodes

Photochemical sources of peroxycarboxylic nitric anhydrides (PANs) are utilized in many atmospheric measurement techniques for calibration or to deliver an internal standard. Conventionally, such sources rely on phosphor-coated low-pressure mercury (Hg) lamps to generate the UV light necessary to ph...
