  2. Scheelite - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Scheelite

    Scheelite is widely used in phosphors, [12] particularly in scintillators for X-ray and gamma-ray detection. [13] It is also utilized in fluorescent lighting systems for its ability to convert ultraviolet light into visible light. [14] In some cathode ray tubes (CRTs), calcium tungstate (Scheelite) is used as a phosphorescent screen material. [15]

  3. Fluorescence - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fluorescence

    Fluorescence in several wavelengths can be detected by an array detector, to detect compounds from HPLC flow. Also, TLC plates can be visualized if the compounds or a coloring reagent is fluorescent. Fluorescence is most effective when there is a larger ratio of atoms at lower energy levels in a Boltzmann distribution. There is, then, a higher ...

  4. Blacklight - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Blacklight

    Blacklight fluorescent tubes. The violet glow of a blacklight is not the UV light itself, but visible light that escapes being filtered out by the filter material in the glass envelope. A blacklight , also called a UV-A light , Wood's lamp , or ultraviolet light , is a lamp that emits long-wave ( UV-A ) ultraviolet light and very little visible ...

  5. Powellite - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Powellite

    It forms a solid solution series with scheelite (calcium tungstate, CaWO 4). It has refractive index values of n ω =1.974 and n ε =1.984. [3] Powellite was first described by William Harlow Melville in 1891 for an occurrence in the Peacock Mine, Adams County, Idaho, and named for American explorer and geologist, John Wesley Powell (1834 ...

  7. Luminous gemstones - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Luminous_gemstones

    A modern parallel to ancient miners seeking luminous gems at nighttime is mineworkers using portable shortwave ultraviolet lamps to locate ores that respond with color-specific fluorescence. For instance, under short-wave UV light, scheelite , a tungsten ore, fluoresces a bright sky-blue, and willemite , a minor ore of zinc , fluoresces green ...

  9. Biofluorescence - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Biofluorescence

    Biofluorescence is fluorescence emitted by a living organism. Biofluorescence requires an external light source and a biomolecular substance that converts absorbed light into a new one. The fluorescent substance absorbs light at one wavelength, often blue or UV, and emits at another, longer wavelength, green, red, or anything in between.
