  2. Electromagnetic absorption by water - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electromagnetic_absorption...

    The absorption (equivalent to dielectric loss) is used in microwave ovens to heat food that contains water molecules. A frequency of 2.45 GHz, wavelength 122 mm, is commonly used. Radiocommunication at GHz frequencies is very difficult in fresh waters and even more so in salt waters. [11]

  3. Scattering parameters - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Scattering_parameters

    Note the format of the parameter notation SXYab, where "S" stands for scattering parameter or S-parameter, "X" is the response mode (differential or common), "Y" is the stimulus mode (differential or common), "a" is the response (output) port and b is the stimulus (input) port. This is the typical nomenclature for scattering parameters.

  4. Raman spectroscopy - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Raman_spectroscopy

    A reason why Raman spectroscopy is useful in biological applications is because its results often do not face interference from water molecules, due to the fact that they have permanent dipole moments, and as a result, the Raman scattering cannot be picked up on. This is a large advantage, specifically in biological applications. [33]

  5. Brillouin scattering - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Brillouin_scattering

    The beam may display Brillouin scattering as a result of those vibrations, usually in the direction opposite the incoming beam, a phenomenon known as stimulated Brillouin scattering (SBS). For liquids and gases, the frequency shifts typically created are of the order of 1–10 GHz resulting in wavelength shifts of ~1–10 pm in the visible light.

  6. Small-angle X-ray scattering - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Small-angle_X-ray_scattering

    Small-angle X-ray scattering (SAXS) is a small-angle scattering technique by which nanoscale density differences in a sample can be quantified. This means that it can determine nanoparticle size distributions, resolve the size and shape of (monodisperse) macromolecules, determine pore sizes and characteristic distances of partially ordered materials. [1]

  7. Coherent anti-Stokes Raman spectroscopy - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Coherent_anti-Stokes_Raman...

    Similarly, the Raman oscillator is susceptible to the difference in frequency between two optical waves. When the difference of frequency ω p-ω S approaches ω v, the oscillator is driven very efficiently. On a molecular level, this implies that the electron cloud surrounding the chemical bond is vigorously oscillating with the frequency ω p ...

  8. Scattering - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Scattering

    Wine glass in LCD projectors light beam makes the beam scatter.. In physics, scattering is a wide range of physical processes where moving particles or radiation of some form, such as light or sound, are forced to deviate from a straight trajectory by localized non-uniformities (including particles and radiation) in the medium through which they pass.

  9. Surface-enhanced Raman spectroscopy - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Surface-enhanced_Raman...

    When the frequency shift is large, the incident light and the Raman signal cannot both be on resonance with ω p, thus the enhancement at both stages cannot be maximal. [17] The choice of surface metal is also dictated by the plasmon resonance frequency. Visible and near-infrared radiation (NIR) are used to excite Raman modes.
