  2. Doppler broadening - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Doppler_broadening

    A particular case is the thermal Doppler broadening due to the thermal motion of the particles. Then, the broadening depends only on the frequency of the spectral line, the mass of the emitting particles, and their temperature , and therefore can be used for inferring the temperature of an emitting (or absorbing) body being spectroscopically ...

  3. Doppler effect - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Doppler_effect

    [1] [2] [3] The Doppler effect is named after the physicist Christian Doppler, who described the phenomenon in 1842. A common example of Doppler shift is the change of pitch heard when a vehicle sounding a horn approaches and recedes from an observer. Compared to the emitted frequency, the received frequency is higher during the approach ...

  4. Optical heterodyne detection - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Optical_heterodyne_detection

    For example, simply attaching 1 million leads to a megapixel coherent array is a daunting challenge. To solve this problem, synthetic array heterodyne detection (SAHD) was developed. [ 2 ] In SAHD, large imaging arrays can be multiplexed into virtual pixels on a single element detector with single readout lead, single electrical filter, and ...

  5. Spectral line shape - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Spectral_line_shape

    The presence of other molecules close to the molecule involved affects both line width and line position. It is the dominant process for liquids and solids. An extreme example of this effect is the influence of hydrogen bonding on the spectra of protic liquids. Observed spectral line shape and line width are also affected by instrumental factors.

  6. Doppler cooling - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Doppler_cooling

    The Doppler temperature is the minimum temperature achievable with Doppler cooling. When a photon is absorbed by an atom counter-propagating to the light source, its velocity is decreased by momentum conservation. When the absorbed photon is spontaneously emitted by the excited atom, the atom receives a momentum kick in a random direction.

  8. Laser surface velocimeter - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Laser_surface_velocimeter

    The differential Doppler process. The Doppler effect (or Doppler shift) is the change in frequency of a wave for an observer moving relative to the source of the wave. The wave has a frequency f and propagates at a speed c When the observer moves at a velocity of v relative to the source, they receive a different frequency f' according to
