Seeing a molecule breathe through scattering of light pulses Date: August 20, 2014 Source: Academy of Finland Summary: For the first time, chemists have succeeded in measuring vibrational motion ...

Imagine a layer of the ocean so teeming with life that, when first discovered, scientists mistook it for the seafloor. This ...

Raman scattering occurs in graphene and other crystals when an incoming photon, a particle of light, excites an electron, which in turn generates a phonon together with a lower-energy photon.

In this interview, AZoMaterials speaks with an expert from Malvern Panalytical, a company at the forefront of light scattering innovation, to explore the technique's current landscape and future ...

This can occur when photon scattering modes are associated with just one spin state. Now, researchers in India and the Netherlands have found that spin-selective or spin asymmetric scattering modes ...

Scientists finally detected a quantum effect that blocks atoms from scattering light When all available quantum states are full, ultracold atom clouds become more transparent ...

New architecture could be used to create tailored devices that emit or receive only certain frequencies of sound ...

This effect was predicted about 40 years ago by Jean Dalibard and Serge Reynaud at ENS Paris in their theoretical work on the scattering of light by atoms.

Mie Scattering occurs when larger particles scatter light over longer distances. Typically, during sunrise and sunset is when Mie Scattering is the strongest, and why we end up with those very red ...

Dynamic Light Scattering is commonly used to rapidly measure the hydrodynamic size and size dispersity of nanoparticles in suspension. Several commercial DLS instruments exist, using a range of ...

Rayleigh scattering refers to "the elastic scattering of light" from atomic and molecular particles whose diameter is less than about a 10 th of the wavelength of the light, explains the ...
