  3. Phosphorescence - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Phosphorescence

    In a modern, scientific sense, the phenomena can usually be classified by the three different mechanisms that produce the light, [further explanation needed] and the typical timescales during which those mechanisms emit light. Whereas fluorescent materials stop emitting light within nanoseconds (billionths of a second) after the excitation ...

  4. List of light sources - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_light_sources

    This is a list of sources of light, the visible part of the electromagnetic spectrum.Light sources produce photons from another energy source, such as heat, chemical reactions, or conversion of mass or a different frequency of electromagnetic energy, and include light bulbs and stars like the Sun. Reflectors (such as the moon, cat's eyes, and mirrors) do not actually produce the light that ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Luminescence

    Cryoluminescence, the emission of light when an object is cooled [6] (an example of this is wulfenite) Photoluminescence, a result of the absorption of photons Fluorescence, traditionally defined as the emission of light that ends immediately after the source of excitation is removed. As the definition does not fully describe the phenomenon ...

  7. Computer graphics lighting - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Computer_graphics_lighting

    Computer graphics lighting is the collection of techniques used to simulate light in computer graphics scenes. While lighting techniques offer flexibility in the level of detail and functionality available, they also operate at different levels of computational demand and complexity.

  8. Deuterium arc lamp - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Deuterium_arc_lamp

    This is similar to the situation in a hydrogen flame. Arc lamps made with ordinary light-hydrogen provide a very similar UV spectrum to deuterium, and have been used in UV spectroscopes. However, lamps using deuterium have a longer life span and an emissivity (intensity) at the far end of their UV range which is three to five times that of an ...

  9. Ionized-air glow - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ionized-air_glow

    Nitrogen glow Oxygen glow Electrical discharge in air Particle beam from a cyclotron. Ionized-air glow is the luminescent emission of characteristic blue–purple–violet light, often of a color called electric blue, by air subjected to an energy flux either directly or indirectly from solar radiation.
