Phosphorescent materials typically emit light for a longer duration than fluorescent materials. What is the main difference between the two?

A) Fluorescent materials glow only under UV light, while phosphorescent materials glow without it

B) Fluorescent materials emit light for a longer time after excitation

C) Phosphorescent materials emit light for a longer time after excitation

D) Fluorescent materials are more durable than phosphorescent materials

Correct! Wrong!

What causes the phosphorescence in phosphorescent crystals?

A) The absorption and subsequent emission of photons due to electron transitions

B) The emission of light as a result of atomic vibrations

C) The reflection of sunlight by the crystal

D) The interaction of the crystal with magnetic fields

Correct! Wrong!

Which of the following materials is commonly used to create phosphorescent crystals?

A) Silicon carbide

B) Zinc sulfide

C) Copper oxide

D) Iron oxide

Correct! Wrong!

What is the primary property of phosphorescent crystals?

A) They emit light only when exposed to ultraviolet (UV) radiation

B) They emit light after the removal of the exciting source

C) They emit light only when heated

D) They do not emit light at all

Correct! Wrong!

Which of the following is NOT a characteristic of phosphorescent crystals?

A) They glow for a long period after being exposed to light

B) They absorb light at a certain wavelength and release it over time

C) Their glow is usually very short-lived

D) They have electron traps that release energy slowly

Correct! Wrong!

Which of the following factors can affect the phosphorescence duration in phosphorescent crystals?

A) The temperature

B) The crystal's atomic structure

C) The presence of impurities

D) All of the above

Correct! Wrong!

What is the main difference between a phosphorescent crystal and a fluorescent crystal?

A) Fluorescent crystals glow in the dark without light exposure, while phosphorescent crystals need light exposure

B) Phosphorescent crystals glow for a longer duration after excitation, while fluorescent crystals glow only as long as the l

ight source is present C) Fluorescent crystals emit visible light, while phosphorescent crystals emit UV light

D) There is no difference between the two

Correct! Wrong!

Phosphorescent crystals are often used in which of the following applications?
