The liquid phase photochemical reaction.

-- Although there was some variation in results which must be attributed either to trace impurities or to variation in wall effects, the photochemical exchange in the gas phase was sufficiently reproducible so that it seemed meaningful to compare the reaction rates in different series of reaction tubes for the purpose of obtaining information on the effect of chlorine concentration and of carbon tetrachloride concentration on the reaction rate.

In chemical terms, actinism is the property of radiation that lets it be absorbed by a molecule and cause a photochemical reaction as a result.

Potential applications include field-effect transistors, electroluminescent devices, solar cells, photochemical resists, nonlinear optic devices, batteries, diodes, and chemical sensors.

The disadvantages of polymer solar cells are also serious: they offer about 1 / 3 of the efficiency of hard materials, and they are relatively unstable toward photochemical degradation.

In fact, Lindzen's, Radiative and photochemical processes in mesospheric dynamics, Part II: Vertical propagation of long period disturbances at the equator, documented the failure of this attempt to explain the QBO.

This work was extended in 1973 to include the effects of nitrogen and hydrogen reactions with his former Ph. D. student, Donna Blake, in Effect of photochemical models on calculated equilibria and cooling rates in the stratosphere.

Becquerel was associated with his father in much of his work, but he himself paid special attention to the study of light, investigating the photochemical effects and spectroscopic characters of solar radiation and the electric light, and the phenomena of phosphorescence, particularly as displayed by the sulfides and by compounds of uranium.

In addition to the sediment core project mentioned above, it has recently studied the effects of small dams on sediment contaminants, photochemical transformation of marsh-derived dissolved organic matter, and sedimentation and eutrophication in salt marshes.

* Different types of glazing can show a variety of chromic phenomena, that is, based on photochemical effects the glazing changes its light transmission properties in response to an environmental signal such as light ( photochromism ), temperature ( thermochromism ), or voltage ( electrochromism ).

Actinism is the property of solar radiation that leads to the production of photochemical and photobiological effects.

# Tris ( 2, 2 ’- bipyridyl ) ruthenium ( II ): This orange colored complex is being studied as the excited state resulting from this charge transfer has a lifetime of microseconds and the complex is a versatile photochemical redox reagent.

The photochemical exchange occurs with a quantum yield of the order of unity in the liquid phase at 65-degrees using light absorbed only by the Af.

With a few exceptions related to high-energy photons ( such as fluorescence, harmonic generation, photochemical reactions, the photovoltaic effect for ionizing radiations at far ultraviolet, X-ray, and gamma radiation ), absorbed electromagnetic radiation simply deposits its energy by heating the material.

The photochemical mechanisms that give rise to the ozone layer were discovered by the British physicist Sidney Chapman in 1930.

The overall amount of ozone in the stratosphere is determined by a balance between photochemical production and recombination.

It can be triggered by irritants in the air, photochemical smog for example, as well as substances that a person is allergic to.

Examples of problems which have been addressed by atmospheric chemistry include acid rain, photochemical smog and global warming.

In 1967, along with his NCAR colleague, Douglas D. McKenzie, Lindzen extended the theory to include a term for Newtonian cooling due to emission of infrared radiation by carbon dioxide in the stratosphere along with ozone photochemical processes, and then in 1968 he showed that the theory also predicted that the semi-diurnal oscillation would be insensitive to variations in the temperature profile, which is why it is observed so much more strongly and regularly at the surface.

The many more recently developed processes labeled " machining ", such as electrical discharge machining, electrochemical machining, electron beam machining, photochemical machining, and ultrasonic machining, or even plasma cutting and water jet cutting, are often performed by machines that could most logically be called machine tools.

In traditional photochemical film finishing, an intermediate is produced by exposing film to the original camera negative.

Mercaptans can be produced by photochemical addition of hydrogen sulfide ( H < sub > 2 </ sub > S ) to alpha olefins.

Another example is a photochemical cycloaddition with two alkene groups tethered through a silicon acetal group ( racemic, the other enantiomer not depicted ), which is subsequently cleaved by TBAF yielding the endo-diol.

Examples of problems which have been addressed by atmospheric chemistry include acid rain, ozone depletion, photochemical smog, greenhouse gases and global warming.

In photochemical reactions, atoms and molecules absorb energy ( photons ) of the illumination light and convert into an excited state.
