  2. Molar absorption coefficient - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Molar_absorption_coefficient

    The SI unit of molar absorption coefficient is the square metre per mole (m 2 /mol), but in practice, quantities are usually expressed in terms of M −1 ⋅cm −1 or L⋅mol −1 ⋅cm −1 (the latter two units are both equal to 0.1 m 2 /mol).

    A. R. Forouhi and I. Bloomer deduced dispersion equations for the refractive index, n, and extinction coefficient, k, which were published in 1986 [1] and 1988. [2] The 1986 publication relates to amorphous materials, while the 1988 publication relates to crystalline.

  4. Mathematical descriptions of opacity - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mathematical_descriptions...

    An electromagnetic wave propagating in the +z-direction is conventionally described by the equation: (,) = ⁡ [()], where E 0 is a vector in the x-y plane, with the units of an electric field (the vector is in general a complex vector, to allow for all possible polarizations and phases);

  5. Beer–Lambert law - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Beer–Lambert_law

    Therefore, measurements at two wavelengths yields two equations in two unknowns and will suffice to determine the amount concentrations c 1 and c 2 as long as the molar attenuation coefficients of the two components, ε 1 and ε 2 are known at both wavelengths. This two system equation can be solved using Cramer's rule.

  6. Extinction coefficient - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Extinction_coefficient

    Extinction coefficient refers to several different measures of the absorption of light in a medium: Attenuation coefficient , sometimes called "extinction coefficient" in meteorology or climatology Mass extinction coefficient , how strongly a substance absorbs light at a given wavelength, per mass density

  7. Variable pathlength cell - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Variable_pathlength_cell

    Variable pathlength absorption spectroscopy uses a determined slope to calculate concentration. As stated above this is a product of the molar absorptivity and the concentration. Since the actual absorbance value is taken at many data points at equal intervals, background subtraction is generally unnecessary.

    This is much faster than the expected “background” extinction rate, or the rate at which species would naturally die off without outside influence — in the absence of human beings, these 73 ...

  9. Rate equation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rate_equation

    In chemistry, the rate equation (also known as the rate law or empirical differential rate equation) is an empirical differential mathematical expression for the reaction rate of a given reaction in terms of concentrations of chemical species and constant parameters (normally rate coefficients and partial orders of reaction) only.
