Exciplex lasers use a combination of a noble gas--argon, krypton, or xenon, with a reactive gas such as fluoride or chloride. Exciplex lasers are sometimes mistakenly referred to as "excimer" lasers, but "excited dimers" are two of the same molecule, rather than an "excited complex" of different molecules.
What else can I help you with?
What gases in the atmosphere absorb infrared radiation and Which gases absorb ultraviolet?
Some of the gases found in our atmosphere which absorb infrared light are: carbon dioxide, methane, and water vapor. Gases found in our atmosphere which absorb ultraviolet light are ozone (O3) and oxygen gas (O2).
Does earth emit ultraviolet radiation?
The Earth itself does not emit ultraviolet radiation. Ultraviolet radiation primarily comes from the sun, which emits different wavelengths of light including ultraviolet radiation. When the Earth is exposed to sunlight, it can absorb and reflect this ultraviolet radiation.
Does carbon dixoide absorb ultraviolet radiation?
No, carbon dioxide primarily absorbs infrared radiation (heat) in the Earth's atmosphere. It plays a role in the greenhouse effect by trapping heat within the atmosphere. Ultraviolet radiation is absorbed by other gases such as ozone in the stratosphere.
How are the 3 forms of radiation from the sun different?
The three forms of radiation from the sun are infrared radiation, visible light, and ultraviolet radiation. Infrared radiation has longer wavelengths and is felt as heat, visible light is the portion of the electromagnetic spectrum that humans can see, and ultraviolet radiation has shorter wavelengths and can cause sunburn and damage to the skin.
Which gases absorb ultraviolent radiation?
Ozone (O3) in the stratosphere absorbs ultraviolet (UV) radiation, particularly UV-B and UV-C. This absorption plays a crucial role in protecting Earth's surface from harmful UV radiation. Additionally, certain greenhouse gases like methane and nitrous oxide can also absorb some UV radiation in the upper atmosphere.
What has greater energy between ultraviolet and infrared?
Ultraviolet radiation has greater energy than infrared radiation. Ultraviolet radiation has shorter wavelengths and higher frequencies, while infrared radiation has longer wavelengths and lower frequencies.
Is visible light a type of ultraviolet radiation?
No, it is a type of electromagnetic radiation, which ultraviolet is part of as well.
Which country has ultraviolet radiation?
At present, Australia is said to receive high levels of ultraviolet radiation.
Is ultraviolet radiation the energy emitted by earth?
No, ultraviolet radiation is not emitted by the Earth itself. Ultraviolet radiation comes from the sun and is a form of electromagnetic radiation with shorter wavelengths than visible light. Earth's atmosphere filters and absorbs some of the incoming ultraviolet radiation before it reaches the surface.
When earths surface is heated it radiates most of the energy back into the atmosphere as ultraviolet radiation?
Not as ultraviolet; the radiation is emitted as infrared radiation.
Why do you need some ultraviolet radiation?
Ultraviolet radiation can kill some microorganisms and has a role in the vitamin A synthesis.
What did the ozone layer that filters ultraviolet radiation originated from?
The ozone layer that filters ultraviolet radiation originated from
