Transcript of What on earth is LUMINESCENCE???

What is it?

• Light that is not generated by high temperatures

• Occurs at low tempteratures

• Form of cold body radiation

Different types

• Chemi-luminescence• Bioluminescence• Crystalloluminescence• Electroluminescence

• Cathodoluminescence• Mechanoluminescence• Triboluminescence• Fractoluminescence• Photoluminescence• Fluorescence• Radioluminescence• Thermoluminescnece

What do you think this would

fall under?

Triboluminescence

•This is normally caused by rubbing

Go Back

Thermoluminescence

This type is released in the form of light when a mineral is heated.

Go Back

Bioluminescence

This is the production and emission of light by a living organism as the result of a chemical reaction during which

chemical energy is converted to light energy

Diamonds are Forever…

But what are they?Really?

Click me to find out.

Triboluminescence

Photoluminescence

Radioluminescence

Triboluminescene

• It usually glows when it is being rubbed or cut

• It usually glows blue or red

Maybe or Maybe not…

But first…

Nah!!!

I not that mean
