  2. Sideband - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sideband

    In radio communications, a sideband is a band of frequencies higher than or lower than the carrier frequency, that are the result of the modulation process. The sidebands carry the information transmitted by the radio signal. The sidebands comprise all the spectral components of the modulated signal except the carrier.

  3. Pendant group - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pendant_group

    In IUPAC nomenclature of chemistry, a pendant group (sometimes spelled pendent) or side group is a group of atoms attached to a backbone chain of a long molecule, usually a polymer. Pendant groups are different from pendant chains, as they are neither oligomeric nor polymeric. [2] For example, the phenyl groups are the pendant groups on a ...

  4. Side chain - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Side_chain

    The side chain is a hydrocarbon branching element of a molecule that is attached to a larger hydrocarbon backbone. It is one factor in determining a molecule's properties and reactivity. [ 2 ] A side chain is also known as a pendant chain , but a pendant group (side group) has a different definition.

  5. Zero-phonon line and phonon sideband - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Zero-phonon_line_and...

    The line shape of the phonon side band is that of a Poisson distribution as it expresses a discrete number of events, electronic transitions with phonons, during a period of time. At higher temperatures, or when the chromophore interacts strongly with the matrix, the probability of multiphonon is high and the phonon side band approximates a ...

  6. Chemical bond - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chemical_bond

    A chemical bond is an attraction between atoms. This attraction may be seen as the result of different behaviors of the outermost or valence electrons of atoms. These behaviors merge into each other seamlessly in various circumstances, so that there is no clear line to be drawn between them.

  7. Side reaction - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Side_reaction

    Side reactions are understood as complex reaction, since the overall reaction (main reaction + side reaction) is composed of several (at least two) elementary reactions. [9] Other complex reactions are competing reactions, parallel reactions, consecutive reactions, chain reactions, reversible reactions, etc. [ 10 ] : 280–291

  8. Covalent bond - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Covalent_bond

    In this formalism, the greater the value of ⁠,, ⁠ the higher the overlap of the selected atomic bands, and thus the electron density described by those orbitals gives a more covalent A−B bond. The quantity ⁠ C A , B {\displaystyle C_{\mathrm {A,B} }} ⁠ is denoted as the covalency of the A−B bond, which is specified in the same units ...

  9. Molecular electronic transition - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Molecular_electronic...

    Benzene has three aromatic π → π* transitions; two E-bands at 180 and 200 nm and one B-band at 255 nm with extinction coefficients respectively 60,000, 8,000 and 215. These absorptions are not narrow bands but are generally broad because the electronic transitions are superimposed on the other molecular energy states .
