Light meets Chemistry
visible light is part of theElectromagnetic Spectrum
Type of EM Radiation
What it does- or is used for
Gamma Rays
Most powerful radiation, causes cancer
X rays Passes through skin- used to photograph the insides of things
Ultraviolet Causes sunburn – damages materials
Visible light
Colors from red to blue
Infrared Radiant heat- used in fiber-optics for telecom, television remote control
Microwaves
Heating food , wireless telecom, cell phone
Radio Waves
Broadcast radio and TV
light is made ofColors
if electricity excites the material: Electroluminescence
and its energy converted toElectricity
if light continues to be emitted after excitation:
Phosphorescence
light can be graphed in aSolar Spectrum
if a chemical reaction occurs:
Chemiluminescence
subtracting colors
Yellow, magenta and cyan colored inks or filters remove light to make any color including black. Where there is no ink the white paper shows through.
some light is invisible: Ultraviolet or Infrared
A radiant heater uses near infrared, a remote control uses far infrared radiation.
Ultraviolet light from a UV lamp, or from the sun, is powerful.
In a light stick, two chemicals react releasing energy in the form of light.
A liquid crystal display has red, green and blue filters over a backlight.
An organic light emitting diode (OLED) uses organic chemicals.
Light emitting diodes come in different colors.
White LEDs are used for energy efficient lighting.
Glow-in-the-dark paper emits light for minutes after it is excited.
Dye sensitized solar cells and organic solar cells use chemicals to trap light.
Silicon solar cells are efficient but expensive.
As sunlight passes through the atmosphere gases absorb certain wavelengths. Much solar energy lies outside the visible part of the spectrum.
Electromagnetic radiation is described by wavelength or frequency. Certain bands have names such as visible, UV or infrared. The shorter the wavelength, the more energetic the photons.
adding colored light
When red, green and blue light are mixed you get white. This is how a
TV makes white light.
light can be Reflected
Light is reflected by mirrors or inside an optical fiber.
light can be Refracted
Light is refracted as it passes through a prism. Blue light bends more than red. White light spreads into a rainbow of all colors.
if a material is very hot and emits light, that is called
IncandescenceThe color of incandescent light varies according to the temperature. Red is cool, white is hot.
after chemicals absorb energy they can Emit Light
light can be Absorbed

Excited State
light, electricity, or heat
We can design chemicals that absorb and emit light at exactly the wavelengths we need. The color of fireworks comes from different elements.
Atoms or molecules absorb energy and reach an excited state. Then they release energy as light , electricity, or heat as they return to the ground state.
