  3. Diindenoperylene - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Diindenoperylene

    DIP is a planar perylene derivative with two indeno-groups attached to opposite sides of the perylene core. Its chemical formula is C 32 H 16, the full chemical name is diindeno[1,2,3-cd:1',2',3'-lm]perylene. Its chemical synthesis has been described. [1] [2]

  4. Luminescence - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Luminescence

    Luminescence is a spontaneous emission of radiation from an electronically or vibrationally excited species not in thermal equilibrium with its environment. [ 1 ] A luminescent object emits cold light in contrast to incandescence , where an object only emits light after heating. [ 2 ]

    Triboluminescence of nicotine L-salicylate. Triboluminescence is a phenomenon in which light is generated when a material is mechanically pulled apart, ripped, scratched, crushed, or rubbed (see tribology).

  6. F-center - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/F-center

    An F center is usually a position in a lattice where an anion, a negatively charged ion, is replaced by an electron. An H center (a halogen interstitial) is in a sense the opposite to an F center, so that when the two come into contact in a crystal they combine and cancel out both defects. This process can be photoinduced, e.g., using a laser.

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nabla_symbol

    The nabla is a triangular symbol resembling an inverted Greek delta: [1] or ∇. The name comes, by reason of the symbol's shape, from the Hellenistic Greek word νάβλα for a Phoenician harp, [2] [3] and was suggested by the encyclopedist William Robertson Smith in an 1870 letter to Peter Guthrie Tait.

  9. Negative luminescence - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Negative_luminescence

    Negative luminescence is most readily observed in semiconductors.Incoming infrared radiation is absorbed in the material by the creation of an electron–hole pair.An electric field is used to remove the electrons and holes from the region before they have a chance to recombine and re-emit thermal radiation.
