  2. Blue laser - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Blue_laser

    argon-ion lasers at 458 and 488 nm [5] Lasers emitting wavelengths below 445 nm appear violet, but are nonetheless also called blue lasers. Violet light's 405 nm short wavelength, on the visible spectrum, causes fluorescence in some chemicals, like radiation in the ultraviolet ("black light") spectrum (wavelengths less than 400 nm).

Xenon ion laser: Many lines throughout visible spectrum extending into the UV and IR: Electrical discharge Scientific research. Nitrogen laser: 337.1 nm Electrical discharge

  4. Photochemistry - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Photochemistry

    Photochemical immersion well reactor (50 mL) with a mercury-vapor lamp.. Photochemistry is the branch of chemistry concerned with the chemical effects of light. Generally, this term is used to describe a chemical reaction caused by absorption of ultraviolet (wavelength from 100 to 400 nm), visible (400–750 nm), or infrared radiation (750–2500 nm).

  5. Antimicrobial photodynamic therapy - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Antimicrobial_Photodynamic...

    Endogenous porphyrins that are light-absorbing compounds located within certain bacteria produce photosensitized reactions in the presence of light in the blue region of the spectrum (400-500 nm), [128] showing better antimicrobial efficacy than other wavelengths in the visible spectrum (e.g. green and red, 500-700 nm) in the absence of an ...

  6. Action spectrum - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Action_spectrum

    UV light wavelengths range between 295 nm-400 nm and are known to induce skin and DNA damage. [3] As a result, action spectra have been used to measure the efficiency of different light wavelengths in disinfecting water, the rate and mechanism of photodegradation of folic acid in the blood, and the chirality of molecules to determine secondary ...

  7. Deuterium arc lamp - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Deuterium_arc_lamp

    Emission spectrum of an ultraviolet deuterium arc lamp showing characteristic hydrogen Balmer lines (sharp peaks at 486 nm and 656 nm labeled D β and D α from left to right respectively), continuum emission in the ~160-400 nm region and Fulcher band emission between around 560 to 640 nm.

  8. Refractive index and extinction coefficient of thin film ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Refractive_index_and...

    Spectroscopic reflectance of a thin film on a substrate represents the ratio of the intensity of light reflected from the sample to the intensity of incident light, measured over a range of wavelengths, whereas spectroscopic transmittance, T(λ), represents the ratio of the intensity of light transmitted through the sample to the intensity of ...

  9. Raman scattering - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Raman_scattering

    In chemistry and physics, Raman scattering or the Raman effect (/ ˈ r ɑː m ən /) is the inelastic scattering of photons by matter, meaning that there is both an exchange of energy and a change in the light's direction. Typically this effect involves vibrational energy being gained by a molecule as incident photons from a visible laser are ...
