The SI unit of molar absorption coefficient is the square metre per mole (m 2 /mol), but in practice, quantities are usually expressed in terms of M −1 ⋅cm −1 or L⋅mol −1 ⋅cm −1 (the latter two units are both equal to 0.1 m 2 /mol).
By utilizing MALS in conjunction with a concentration detector as described above, one create a log-log plot of the root-mean-square radius vs molar mass. The slope of this plot yields the branching ratio, g. [28] In addition to branching, the log-log plot of size vs. molar mass indicates the shape or conformation of a macromolecule.
When an isosbestic plot is constructed by the superposition of the absorption spectra of two species (whether by using molar absorptivity for the representation, or by using absorbance and keeping the same molar concentration for both species), the isosbestic point corresponds to a wavelength at which these spectra cross each other.
By knowing the molar absorptivity of the material and varying the path length, absorption can be plotted as a function of path length. See sample plot to the right: By taking a linear regression of the linear plot above an expression relating Absorbance, A, slope, m, pathlength and concentration can be derived.
In the context of ozone shielding of ultraviolet light, absorption cross section is the ability of a molecule to absorb a photon of a particular wavelength and polarization. Analogously, in the context of nuclear engineering, it refers to the probability of a particle (usually a neutron ) being absorbed by a nucleus.
For polydisperse samples, the resulting molecular mass from a static light-scattering measurement will represent an average value. An advantage of the Debye plot is the possibility to determine the second virial coefficient. This parameter describes the interaction between particles and the solvent.
An overview of absorption of electromagnetic radiation.This example shows the general principle using visible light as a specific example. A white light source—emitting light of multiple wavelengths—is focused on a sample (the pairs of complementary colors are indicated by the yellow dotted lines).
Extinction coefficient refers to several different measures of the absorption of light in a medium: Attenuation coefficient, sometimes called "extinction coefficient" in meteorology or climatology Mass extinction coefficient, how strongly a substance absorbs light at a given wavelength, per mass density
