    After her graduation in 2007, she met Byju Raveendran, [8] her instructor for GRE preparation. [3] [9] Byju encouraged her to become a teacher due to her questions during breaks between the classes. [3] Her career as a teacher began in 2008 [3] at age 21. [10] [7] In 2020, she told Fortune India, "It was an auditorium-style class with 100 ...

    Byju's is an education tutoring app that runs on a freemium model, [30] with free access to content limited for 15 days after the registration. [30] [31] It was launched in August 2015, [32] offering educational content for students from classes 4 to 12. [33]

  4. Birefringence - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Birefringence

    Light from the source is polarized in the x direction after passing through the first polarizer, but above the specimen is a polarizer (a so-called analyzer) oriented in the y direction. Therefore, no light from the source will be accepted by the analyzer, and the field will appear dark.

  5. List of light sources - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_light_sources

    This is a list of sources of light, the visible part of the electromagnetic spectrum.Light sources produce photons from another energy source, such as heat, chemical reactions, or conversion of mass or a different frequency of electromagnetic energy, and include light bulbs and stars like the Sun. Reflectors (such as the moon, cat's eyes, and mirrors) do not actually produce the light that ...

  6. Light - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Light

    Light, visible light, or visible radiation is electromagnetic radiation that can be perceived by the human eye. [1] Visible light spans the visible spectrum and is usually defined as having wavelengths in the range of 400–700 nanometres (nm), corresponding to frequencies of 750–420 terahertz .

  7. Absorption (electromagnetic radiation) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Absorption_(electromagnetic...

    By recording the attenuation of light for various wavelengths, an absorption spectrum can be obtained. In physics , absorption of electromagnetic radiation is how matter (typically electrons bound in atoms ) takes up a photon 's energy —and so transforms electromagnetic energy into internal energy of the absorber (for example, thermal energy ).

  8. Photoconductivity - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Photoconductivity

    When light is absorbed by a material such as a semiconductor, the number of free electrons and holes increases, resulting in increased electrical conductivity. [2] To cause excitation, the light that strikes the semiconductor must have enough energy to raise electrons across the band gap , or to excite the impurities within the band gap.

  9. Photochromism - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Photochromism

    Photochromism is the reversible change of color upon exposure to light. It is a transformation of a chemical species ( photoswitch ) between two forms by the absorption of electromagnetic radiation ( photoisomerization ), where the two forms have different absorption spectra.
