Researchers try to decode the quantum mechanics of chlorophyll, Nature’s near-perfect light harvester, to harness solar ...

A new publication in Opto-Electronic Science discusses boosting UV light absorption in a 2D semiconductor with quantum dot hybrids for enhanced light emission. Two-dimensional (2D) transition ...

This ability of the complexes to transfer electrons to a reaction partner after light absorption is of great importance, ...

When photons of light pass through a gas, the photons with the same energy as the energy gaps in the atoms can be absorbed. This causes an absorption spectra, as shown below. Because the energy ...

When a gas is very hot, it doesn’t emit all wavelengths of light. Hot gases don’t produce a continuous emission spectrum. Black hydrogen absorption lines are at the same wavelength as the ...

It involves the collective oscillation of free electrons in the nanoparticle, leading to strong light absorption, scattering, and enhancement of the local electromagnetic field. LSPR is highly ...
