Surface layering — is a quasi crystalline structure at the surfaces of otherwise disordered liquids, where atoms or molecules of even the simplest liquid are stratified into well defined layers parallel to the surface. While in crystalline solids such atomic layers … Wikipedia
Surface freezing — is the appearance of long range crystalline order in a near surface layer of a liquid. The surface freezing effect is opposite to a far more common surface melting, or premelting. Surface Freezing was experimentally discovered in melts of alkanes … Wikipedia
Reflectivity — In photometry and heat transfer, reflectivity is the fraction of incident radiation reflected by a surface. In full generality it must be treated as a directional property that is a function of the reflected direction, the incident direction, and … Wikipedia
Surface plasmon resonance — The excitation of surface plasmons by light is denoted as a surface plasmon resonance (SPR) for planar surfaces or localized surface plasmon resonance (LSPR) for nanometer sized metallic structures.This phenomenon is the basis of many standard… … Wikipedia
surface analysis — ▪ chemistry Introduction in analytical chemistry (chemistry), the study of that part of a solid that is in contact with a gas or a vacuum. When two phases of matter are in contact, they form an interface. The term surface is usually… … Universalium

X-ray reflectivity — sometimes known as X ray Specular Reflectivity, X ray Reflectometry, or XRR for short, is a surface sensitive analytical technique used in chemistry, physics, and materials science to characterize surfaces, thin films and multilayers. [ Holy, V.… … Wikipedia
Cloud reflectivity modification — Cloud reflectivity enhancement is also known as marine cloud brightening or cloud whitening on low cloud. An opposite scheme exists to reduce the reflectivity of higher, colder cirrus clouds.[1] It is a geoengineering technique that works by… … Wikipedia
