  2. Umpolung - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Umpolung

    In organic chemistry, umpolung (German: [ˈʔʊmˌpoːlʊŋ]) or polarity inversion is the chemical modification of a functional group with the aim of the reversal of polarity of that group. [ 1 ] [ 2 ] This modification allows secondary reactions of this functional group that would otherwise not be possible. [ 3 ]

  3. Magnetization reversal by circularly polarized light - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Magnetization_reversal_by...

    Yet, before the experiments of Stanciu and Hansteen, all-optical controllable magnetization reversal in a stable magnetic state was considered impossible. [ 1 ] In quantum field theory and quantum chemistry the effect where the angular momentum associated to the circular motion of the photons induces an angular momentum in the electrons is ...

  4. Polarity inversion - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Polarity_inversion

    Polarity inversion may refer to: Polarity inversion (chemistry) (aka Umpolung ), in organic chemistry Polarity inversion (differential pairs) , swapping of positive and negative wires in differential signal links

  5. Gauss–Matuyama reversal - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gauss–Matuyama_reversal

    The Earth's magnetic field is approximately four times stronger today than it was during the Gauss–Matuyama reversal. [4] The reversal is thought to have weakened the shielding that the magnetic field provides the surface Earth, resulting in more exposure to ionizing radiation generated by the early Pleistocene supernova , and leaving the ...

  6. Polarizability - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Polarizability

    Magnetic polarizability likewise refers to the tendency for a magnetic dipole moment to appear in proportion to an external magnetic field. Electric and magnetic polarizabilities determine the dynamical response of a bound system (such as a molecule or crystal) to external fields, and provide insight into a molecule's internal structure. [2] "

  7. Magnetoresistance - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Magnetoresistance

    To compensate for the non-linear characteristics and inability to detect the polarity of a magnetic field, the following structure is used for sensors. It consists of stripes of aluminum or gold placed on a thin film of permalloy (a ferromagnetic material exhibiting the AMR effect) inclined at an angle of 45°.

  8. Magnetochemistry - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Magnetochemistry

    Magnetochemistry is concerned with the magnetic properties of chemical compounds and elements. Magnetic properties arise from the spin and orbital angular momentum of the electrons contained in a compound. Compounds are diamagnetic when they contain no unpaired electrons. Molecular compounds that contain one or more unpaired electrons are ...

  9. Chemical polarity - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chemical_polarity

    In chemistry, polarity is a separation of electric charge leading to a molecule or its chemical groups having an electric dipole moment, with a negatively charged end and a positively charged end. Polar molecules must contain one or more polar bonds due to a difference in electronegativity between the bonded atoms.
