The symbol to lower a note a half step is called a flat.
1/2= quaver, 1/4= semi quaver 1/8= demi semi quaver hope that helps :)
a flat... It looks similar to a lower-case b except the bottom is somewhat pointed. Flats and sharps (#) are usually found in the key signature, but sometimes one is placed immediately before the note that is to be played a half step lower (flat) or higher (sharp).
Just the opposite, actually. A sharp RAISES a note by one half-step.
For half step sharps, the most commonly used and the one you are probably referring to that raises a pitch a half tone up, you use a # symbol. If you are writing on manuscript (staff paper), you write the # symbol before the note. If you are writing it on regular notebook paper, you write it after the note name, i.e. C#. For whole step sharps, which raises a pitch a whole tone up, you use a x symbol. The position of the symbol is the same as half step sharps. For quarter step sharps, which are unconventional in western music but used in oriental music, look it up on wikipedia. The position of the symbol is the same as half step sharps also.

A flat (♭) lowers the pitch of a note by a semitone (half-step). A sharp (#) raises the pitch of a note by a semitone. Naturals cancel out sharps or flats that apply to notes and make them their usual pitch (♮).

Higher the frequency, higher the pitch. Doubling a frequency raises pitch by one (musical) octave. Many people can hear sounds at frequencies between 20 Hz and 16kHz.
When a finger is placed upon a violin, and a bow is pulled across it, the violin produces a higher pitch sound. The more fingers placed on the same string, the higher pitch the sound is. Hope this helped.
