Matter absorbs photons.
Electrons in quantized harmonized orbits of the same energy level as the photon absorp it.
it is not photo luminescence it is photoluminescence.Photoluminescence (abbreviated as PL) is a process in which a substance absorbs photons (electromagnetic radiation) and then re-radiates photons.
When sunlight photons pass through a glass pane, most of the photons are transmitted through the glass, while some are reflected and scattered. The glass absorbs very little of the sunlight energy, allowing most of it to pass through into the enclosed space.
No, photoluminescence does not produce ionizing radiation. It mainly involves the emission of photons (light) when a material absorbs photons of higher energy and re-emits them at a lower energy level. This process does not involve the emission of ionizing radiation.
The photoelectric effect involves the ejection of electrons from a material when it absorbs photons, while Compton scattering is the process where photons collide with electrons, causing them to change direction and lose energy. The key difference is that in the photoelectric effect, electrons are ejected from the material, while in Compton scattering, electrons remain within the material but change their direction and energy.
The term for the small packets of energy emitted from light is called photons.
Chlorophyll is the green pigment in chloroplasts that absorbs photons during photosynthesis.

A photodiode absorbs sunlight (photons) and converts it to a current (flow of electrons) or a voltage (separation of electrons)

Black is the color that absorbs most of the visible light spectrum. Therefore they are black so that they can absorb those photons.

Chlorophyll is the molecule found in the chloroplasts of plant cells that traps photons of light during photosynthesis. It absorbs light energy, which is then used to convert carbon dioxide and water into glucose and oxygen.

In a protostar's outer layers, hydrogen atoms absorb photons. This process triggers nuclear fusion reactions that release energy and contribute to the protostar's growth and development into a stable star.
An excited atom can return to its ground state by releasing energy in the form of photons. This process is known as spontaneous emission. The released photons have lower energy than the original absorbed photons, causing the atom to transition back to a lower energy state, typically the ground state.
Because of all the colours of sunlight. There are loads of red photons, but theycontain much less energy. Whereas blue photons, though there are much lessof them, they contain lots of energy. That is why plant's leaves are green, tocollect the green photons. There are a fair amount of them and the containenough energy to survive on!Voila!But I have a question ... If the plant collects the green photons, then how comethe leaves look green after the plant has sucked all the green photons out of thelight that hits it ? And if the plant doesn't keep any of the other light except thegreen, then how come we don't see any of the other colors after they hit the plantand bounce off of it ?Well, the leaves are green so that they can collect the green photons. It's quitesimple! If they collected blue photons, they would be blue! And if they collectedred photons then they'd be red!If you put a glass prism in the sunlight, it breaks the sunlight into its colours! Butto our eyes the sunlight appears white. Hope that has answered your question!Sorry. I don't buy it. We see the color that the object reflects, and we don't seethe color that it absorbs. Things that absorb red don't look red, and things thatlook yellow don't absorb yellow. An object that absorbs everything looks black,not white.
