  2. Laser accelerometer - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Laser_accelerometer

    An accelerometer was announced that used infrared light to measure the change in distance between two micromirrors in a Fabry–Perot cavity. The proof mass is a single silicon crystal with a mass of 10–20 mg, suspended from the first mirror using flexible 1.5 μm-thick silicon nitride (Si 3 N 4) beams. The suspension allows the proof mass to ...

  3. Cross-coupling reaction - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cross-coupling_reaction

    In organic chemistry, a cross-coupling reaction is a reaction where two different fragments are joined. Cross-couplings are a subset of the more general coupling reactions. Often cross-coupling reactions require metal catalyst

  4. Piezoelectric accelerometer - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Piezoelectric_accelerometer

    Both methods ensure that unwanted orthogonal acceleration vectors are excluded from detection. Manufacturing an accelerometer that uses piezoresistance first starts with a semiconductor layer that is attached to a handle wafer by a thick oxide layer. The semiconductor layer is then patterned to the accelerometer's geometry.

  6. Oblate spheroidal coordinates - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Oblate_spheroidal_coordinates

    The Cartesian coordinates of P are roughly (1.09, −1.89, 1.66). Oblate spheroidal coordinates are a three-dimensional orthogonal coordinate system that results from rotating the two-dimensional elliptic coordinate system about the non-focal axis of the ellipse, i.e., the symmetry axis that separates the foci.

  7. Bent's rule - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bent's_rule

    The s orbital is normalized and so the inner product s | s = 1. Also, the s orbital is orthogonal to the p i and p j orbitals, which leads to two terms in the above equaling zero. Finally, the last term is the inner product of two normalized functions that are at an angle of ω ij to each other, which gives cos ω ij by definition.

  8. Time-of-flight mass spectrometry - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Time-of-flight_mass...

    The velocity of the charged particle after acceleration will not change since it moves in a field-free time-of-flight tube. The velocity of the particle can be determined in a time-of-flight tube since the length of the path (d) of the flight of the ion is known and the time of the flight of the ion (t) can be measured using a transient digitizer or time to digital converter.

  9. Accelerometer - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Accelerometer

    An accelerometer measures proper acceleration, which is the acceleration it experiences relative to freefall and is the acceleration felt by people and objects. [2] Put another way, at any point in spacetime the equivalence principle guarantees the existence of a local inertial frame, and an accelerometer measures the acceleration relative to that frame. [4]
