tipping angle

Materials science; Material physics

Superfluorescence is triggered by vacuum fluctuations. Thus, it is never triggered in a semiclassical theory. This can be dealt with by assuming a stochastic tipping angle of the ...

homodyne detection

Materials science; Material physics

Superposing a signal beam with a coherent beam of a local oscillator of the same frequency and its constant relative phase at a beam splitter. The homodyne detection technique has ...

Klein paradox

Materials science; Material physics

Suppose that an electron described by the Dirac equation is moving in a space under a potential field. The space is separated by a potential step which is greater than twice the ...

unit cell

Materials science; Material physics

Symmetric properties of crystal can be shown by a unit cell. For example, a bodycentered cubic unit cell has body-centered symmetry. One unit cell can be divided into several ...

upsilon meson

Materials science; Material physics

T Was discovered in Fermilab (1977). This is an unstable massive meson (bottomonium state bb, beauty quarks). The mass is about 10 proton masses. This particle has pointed to the ...

photon echo

Materials science; Material physics

Technique analogous to spin echoes, in which the washing out of Rabi oscillations by inhomogeneous broadening in a vapor of atoms is partially reversed by a suitable pulse at the ...

TEM modes

Materials science; Material physics

TEM stands for transverse electromagnetic. TEM modes are propagating modes of the electromagnetic field where both the electric and magnetic fields are perpendicular to the ...
