-
a measure of the rate of decrease in the intensity of electromagnetic radiation (as light) as it passes through a given substance; the fraction of incident radiant energy absorbed per unit mass or thickness of an absorber
absorptance equals 1 minus transmittance
How To Use absorption coefficient In A Sentence
- Metal carbonyls have high oscillator strength, large absorption coefficients, and strong electronic resonance in the visible and ultraviolet regimes, making them excellent spectroscopic probes.
- The Determination of Cyclopenthiazide by using the ratio absorption coefficient in UV - spectrophotometer was studied.
- The sound absorption coefficient of the material was tested by standing wave tube method.
- Traditional Methods : To measure absorption coefficient are standing wave tube and reverberation which have some shortcomings.
