fluorescence
fluorescence A kind of luminescence, in which an atom or molecule emits radiation when electrons within it pass back from a higher to their former, lower-energy, state. The term is restricted to the phenomenon in cases where the interval between absorption and emission is very short (less than 10
−3s).
