  2. Quenching - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Quenching

    The earliest examples of quenched steel may come from ancient Mesopotamia, with a relatively secure example of a fourth-century BC quench-hardened chisel from Al Mina in Turkey. [6] Book 9, lines 389-94 of Homer's Odyssey is widely cited as an early, possibly the first, written reference to quenching: [3] [7]

  3. Quenching (fluorescence) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Quenching_(fluorescence)

    Dexter (also known as Dexter exchange or collisional energy transfer, colloquially known as Dexter Energy Transfer) is another dynamic quenching mechanism. [12] Dexter electron transfer is a short-range phenomenon that falls off exponentially with distance (proportional to e −kR where k is a constant that depends on the inverse of the van der Waals radius of the atom [citation needed]) and ...

  4. Dark quencher - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dark_quencher

    In chemistry, a dark quencher (also known as a dark sucker) is a substance that absorbs excitation energy from a fluorophore and dissipates the energy as heat; while a typical (fluorescent) quencher re-emits much of this energy as light. [1]

  5. Quench polish quench - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Quench_polish_quench

    Quench polish quench (QPQ) is a specialized type of nitrocarburizing case hardening that increases corrosion resistance. It is sometimes known by the brand name of Tufftride, Tenifer or Melonite. [1] Three steps are involved: nitrocarburize ("quench"), polish, and post-oxidize ("quench"). [2]

  6. Photoredox catalysis - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Photoredox_catalysis

    Here, I and I 0 denote the emission intensity with and without quenching agent present, k q the rate constant of the quenching process, τ 0 the excited-state lifetime in the absence of quenching agent and [Q] the concentration of quenching agent. Thus, if the excited-state lifetime of the photoredox catalyst is known from other experiments ...

  7. Liquid dielectric - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Liquid_dielectric

    A liquid dielectric is a dielectric material in liquid state. Its main purpose is to prevent or rapidly quench electric discharges.Dielectric liquids are used as electrical insulators in high voltage applications, e.g. transformers, capacitors, high voltage cables, and switchgear (namely high voltage switchgear).
