Nether is a first-person multiplayer survival game for Windows. [2] It was developed by American studio Phosphor Games, and was first available on October 29, 2013. [citation needed] Nether became popular in late 2013, when many YouTubers such as Markiplier were uploading videos of them playing the game.
Potassium fluorosilicate is a chemical compound with the chemical formula K 2 [SiF 6].. When doped with potassium hexafluoromanganate(IV) (K 2 [MnF 6], with Mn 4+) it forms a narrow band red producing phosphor, (often abbreviated PSF or KSF), of economic interest due to its applicability in LED lighting and displays.
A phosphor is a substance that exhibits the phenomenon of luminescence; it emits light when exposed to some type of radiant energy.
The term phosphor had been used since the Middle Ages to describe minerals that glowed in the dark. One of the most famous, but not the first, was Bolognian phosphor. Around 1604, Vincenzo Casciarolo discovered a "lapis solaris" near Bologna, Italy. Once heated in an oxygen-rich furnace, it thereafter absorbed sunlight and glowed in the dark.
Phosphorus is also an important component in steel production, in the making of phosphor bronze, and in many other related products. [ 120 ] [ 121 ] Phosphorus is added to metallic copper during its smelting process to react with oxygen present as an impurity in copper and to produce phosphorus-containing copper ( CuOFP ) alloys with a higher ...
White phosphorus (left), red phosphorus (center left and center right), and violet phosphorus (right) White phosphorus and resulting allotropes Elemental phosphorus can exist in several allotropes, the most common of which are white and red solids.
Laser-powered phosphor display (LPD) is a large-format display technology similar to the cathode-ray tube (CRT). Prysm, Inc., a video wall designer and manufacturer in Silicon Valley, California, invented and patented [ 1 ] the LPD technology.
Phosphor thermometry is an optical method for surface temperature measurement. The method exploits luminescence emitted by phosphor material. Phosphors are fine white or pastel-colored inorganic powders which may be stimulated by any of a variety of means to luminesce, i.e. emit light.
