    THERMOLUMINESCENCE

    Uploaded by

    The document compares and contrasts fluorescence and phosphorescence. Fluorescence involves emission of light without a change in electron spin and stops when the radiation source stops. Phosphorescence involves a change in electron spin and continues glowing after the radiation source stops. Examples of materials that exhibit phosphorescence include some sea creatures and glow-in-the-dark products.

    FLUORESCENCE PHOSPHORESCENCE

    - The emission of light by a substance which has absorbed light or other - Phosphorescence is a specific type of photoluminescence related to fluorescence.
    electromagnet radiation - A process in which energy absorbed by a substance is released relatively slowly in the form of light.
    - It is one type of luminescence and occurs in different form which is solid, liquid and - Phosphorescence is a light energy produced by a particular type of chemical reaction where the excess
    gas. chemical energy of the reactants is given off as light energy.
    - It also has a much longer wavelength then compared to absorbed radiation and - Phosphorescence materials store and re-emit light because of their usual property of trapping electrons in a
    contain low of energy. higher state of movement.
    - Flourescence materials cease to glow almost instantly when the radiation source - Examples of phosphorescence materials:
    stops. i) In sea creatures:
    - The most common application is in energy-saving fluorescence lamps and LED Jellyfish, as well as various species of worms, shrimp,
    lamps. and squid, all produce their own light through
    - Fluorescence also can be occurs often in nature like minerals & biological forms phosphorescence
    across all kingdoms of life. Sometimes this is called biofluorescence. ii) glow-in-the-dark stars
    iii) some safety signs
    iv) glowing paint

    DIFFERENT OF PHOSPHORENCENCE AND FLUORESCENCE


    THERMOLUMINESCENCE
    Phosphorencence Fluorescence - Is a form of luminescence that is exhibited - A thermoluminescent dosimeter (TLD), is a passive radiation
