sevanje

Sevavanje refers to the emission of light from a substance that has absorbed energy. This energy can come from various sources, including heat, chemical reactions, or electromagnetic radiation. The emitted light is a result of electrons within the atoms or molecules of the substance transitioning from a higher energy state to a lower energy state. As these electrons fall back to their ground state, they release the excess energy in the form of photons, which we perceive as light.

There are several types of sevavanje, each characterized by the source of the initial energy input. Chemiluminescence, for instance, occurs during a chemical reaction. Bioluminescence is a form of chemiluminescence produced by living organisms, such as fireflies or certain deep-sea creatures. Thermoluminescence involves the release of light from a substance that has been heated, typically after being exposed to radiation. Photoluminescence is the emission of light after absorbing photons, a process that includes fluorescence and phosphorescence, which differ in the duration of light emission after the excitation source is removed. Triboluminescence is the light produced when a material is mechanically stressed, rubbed, or broken. Understanding sevavanje is crucial in various fields, from material science and analytical chemistry to biology and astronomy.
