energy absorption characteristics
1Absorption spectroscopy — An overview of electromagnetic radiation absorption. This example discusses the general principle using visible light as a specific example. A white beam source – emitting light of multiple wavelengths – is focused on a sample (the complementary… …
2Absorption band — An absorption band is a range of wavelengths (or, equivalently, frequencies) in the electromagnetic spectrum which are able to excite a particular transition in a substance. See absorption spectrum. Since energetic transitions can take place in… …
3Solar energy — is the light and radiant heat from the Sun that powers Earth s climate and weather and sustains life. Since ancient times it has been harnessed for human use through a range of technologies. Solar radiation along with secondary solar resources… …
4Solar thermal energy — Solar thermal system for water heating in Santorini, Greece …
5Electrical characteristics of dynamic loudspeakers — A dynamic loudspeaker driver s chief electrical characteristic is its electrical impedance versus frequency. Explanation The most common driver type is an electro mechanical transducer using a voice coil rigidly connected to a diaphragm… …
6Wireless energy transfer — or wireless power is the transmission of electrical energy from a power source to an electrical load without artificial interconnecting conductors. Wireless transmission is useful in cases where interconnecting wires are inconvenient, hazardous,… …
7Two-photon absorption — (TPA) is the simultaneous absorption of two photons of identical or different frequencies in order to excite a molecule from one state (usually the ground state) to a higher energy electronic state. The energy difference between the involved… …
8Förster resonance energy transfer — (abbreviated FRET), also known as Fluoresence resonance energy transfer or resonance energy transfer (RET), describes an energy transfer mechanism between two chromophores. A donor chromophore in its excited state can transfer energy by a… …
9List of energy topics — This is a list of energy topics which identifies articles and categories that relate to energy in general. Energy refers to the ability to do work . The word is used in several different contexts. The engineering use has a precise, well defined… …
10Outline of energy — See also: Index of energy articles In physics, energy (from the Greek ἐνέργεια – energeia, activity, operation , from ἐνεργός – energos, active, working [1]) is a scalar physical quantity that describes the amount of work that can be performed by …
