Sentence examples for a precise wavelength from inspiring English sources

Mirrors at the ends of each arm form a long "resonant cavity," in which laser light of a precise wavelength bounces back and forth, resonating just as sound of a specific pitch rings in an organ pipe.

Conventional organic dyes cannot be easily synthesized to emit different colors because the excitation and emission wavelengths depend on their chemical structure, and tuning to a precise wavelength requires sophisticated chemistry.

One of the materials is made of quantum dots tiny crystals a few billionths of a meter in diameter that absorb light of one color and emit light of a very different hue and a very precise wavelength.

But the amplification occurs only if the second beam is tuned to a certain precise wavelength, Dr. Steinberg said.

These nanoparticles interact only with bits of light with a precise blue wavelength, allowing other light to pass through unimpeded.

Although the attenuation of the maximum transmission intensities is only about 3%to5%5% resulting in a negligible reduction in the parameter Q, the precise wavelength position of each channel, λc, was affected significantly.

"The glass will look almost perfectly transparent," Soljačić says, "because most light is not of that precise wavelength" that the nanoparticles are designed to scatter.

After some practice, Howard has become fully attuned to Brown's dim, impatient storytelling style, and fashions this latest globetrotting episode of nominally cryptic skull-digging and skulduggery to please only those on the same precise wavelength.

Information derived from fringe measurements is used for precise wavelength determinations, measurement of very small distances and thicknesses, the study of spectrum lines, and determination of refractive indices of transparent materials.

Spectroscopic examination shows that every element has its characteristic set of spectral lines, and the discovery by the Swiss mathematician Johann Jakob Balmer of a simple arithmetic formula relating the wavelengths of lines in the hydrogen spectrum (1885) proved to be the start of intense activity in precise wavelength measurements of all known elements and the search for general principles.

It changes the precise wavelength position of individual channels; it increases the out-of-band reflection and causes an attenuation of the maximum intensity, resulting in a lowering of the quality factor, Q.
