R-center
Materials science; Material physics
One of many centers (e.g., F, M, N, etc.) arising out of different types of treatment to which a transparent crystal is subjected to rectify some defects in the form of absorption ...
equivalence principle
Materials science; Material physics
One of the basic assumptions of general relativity, that all physical systems cannot distinguish between an acceleration and a gravitational field.
optoelectronics
Materials science; Material physics
One of the fastest growing areas of modem technology which is key for much of the communications and information industries. It is based on the quantum phenomena describing the ...
body-centered cubic structure
Materials science; Material physics
One of the most common metallic structures. In the body-centered cubic structure, atoms are arranged in a cubes, and an additional atom is located at the center of each cube.
ionization chamber
Materials science; Material physics
One of the oldest instruments used in nuclear physics to detect charged particles. It consists of a chamber filled with a substance, usually in the form of a gas, which becomes ...
