unusual facts about energy level



Molecular orbital

Within a particular representation, the symmetry-adapted atomic orbitals mix more if their atomic energy levels are closer.

Planetary nebula

Physicists showed in the 1920s that in gas at extremely low densities, electrons can populate excited metastable energy levels in atoms and ions which at higher densities are rapidly de-excited by collisions.

Rabi frequency

The Rabi frequency is a semiclassical concept as it is based on a quantum atomic transition and a classical light field.

Einstein coefficients

Stimulated emission (also known as induced emission) is the process by which an electron is induced to jump from a higher energy level to a lower one by the presence of electromagnetic radiation at (or near) the frequency of the transition.

Ultra-wideband

Ultra-wideband (also known as UWB, ultra-wide band and ultraband) is a radio technology pioneered by Robert A. Scholtz and others which may be used at a very low energy level for short-range, high-bandwidth communications using a large portion of the radio spectrum.
