摘要:
An insect decoy is provided that includes a vapor-isolated vessel, a chemical compound disposed within the vapor-isolated vessel, and an excitation energy source. The chemical compound may have one or more absorption bands at a set of absorption wavelengths and have one or more emission bands at a set of emission wavelengths. The excitation energy source may be configured to produce electromagnetic radiation at the absorption wavelengths so as to fluoresce the chemical compound and release photons at the emission wavelengths. The vapor-isolated vessel may be configured with at least one infrared transmissive window that is substantially transparent to the released photons at the emission wavelengths of the chemical compound.
摘要:
An apparatus is provided for causing a behavioral response in an insect species. The apparatus may include a housing, a radiating emitter, a directing apparatus, and a power source coupled to the radiating emitter. The radiating emitter may be configured to emit radiation at one or more wavelengths simulating an emission spectrum of a chemical compound of interest that may cause a behavioral response in the insect species. The directing apparatus disposed within the housing may be configured to control a direction of the emitted radiation and the power source may be configured to control an intensity of the emitted radiation.
摘要:
An apparatus (5) and method for controlling insects utilizes a light pump (60) and vibrator motor (40) to generate coherent or semi-coherent radiation frequencies to control or attract the insects. The light pump (60) and a scatter surface (20) generate the coherent or the semi-coherent radiation frequencies to control or attract the insects.
