  2. Electromagnetic spectrum - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electromagnetic_spectrum

    The spectrum is divided into separate bands, with different names for the electromagnetic waves within each band. From low to high frequency these are: radio waves, microwaves, infrared, visible light, ultraviolet, X-rays, and gamma rays. The electromagnetic waves in each of these bands have different characteristics, such as how they are ...

  3. Douglas sea scale - Wikipedia

    Very Low (short or average and low wave) 2 Low (long and low wave) 3 Light (short and moderate wave) 4 Moderate (average and moderate wave) 5 Moderate rough (long and moderate wave) 6 Rough (short and high wave) 7 High (average and high wave) 8 Very high (long and high wave) 9 Confused (wavelength and height indefinable)

  4. List of laser types - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_laser_types

    Laser types with distinct laser lines are shown above the wavelength bar, while below are shown lasers that can emit in a wavelength range. The height of the lines and bars gives an indication of the maximal power/pulse energy commercially available, while the color codifies the type of laser material (see the figure description for details).

  5. Extreme ultraviolet lithography - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Extreme_ultraviolet...

    An EUV mask consists of 40–50 [13] alternating silicon and molybdenum layers; [14] this is a multilayer which acts to reflect the extreme ultraviolet light through Bragg diffraction; the reflectance is a strong function of incident angle and wavelength, with longer wavelengths reflecting more near normal incidence and shorter wavelengths ...

  6. Fundamental frequency - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fundamental_frequency

    where is the speed of the wave, the fundamental frequency can be found in terms of the speed of the wave and the length of the pipe: f 0 = v 4 L {\displaystyle f_{0}={\frac {v}{4L}}} If the ends of the same pipe are now both closed or both opened, the wavelength of the fundamental harmonic becomes 2 L {\displaystyle 2L} .

  7. Extremely high frequency - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Extremely_high_frequency

    Low intensity (usually 10 mW/cm 2 or less) electromagnetic radiation of extremely high frequency may be used in human medicine for the treatment of diseases. For example, "A brief, low-intensity MMW exposure can change cell growth and proliferation rates, activity of enzymes , state of cell genetic apparatus, function of excitable membranes and ...

  8. High frequency - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/High_frequency

    HF's position in the electromagnetic spectrum.. High frequency (HF) is the ITU designation [1] [2] for the band of radio waves with frequency between 3 and 30 megahertz (MHz). It is also known as the decameter band or decameter wave as its wavelengths range from one to ten decameters (ten to one hundred meters).

  9. Waveguide - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Waveguide

    The frequency of the transmitted wave also dictates the size of a waveguide: each waveguide has a cutoff wavelength determined by its size and will not conduct waves of greater wavelength; an optical fiber that guides light will not transmit microwaves which have a much larger wavelength. Some naturally occurring structures can also act as ...
