Sentences with phrase «penetration depth»

"Penetration depth" refers to how far an object or force can go into another material before it stops or is fully absorbed. Full definition
«The elephant in the room, however, is the question of the short penetration depth of light within tissue compared to ultrasound or x-ray technologies.
As the material warmed from absolute zero, the field penetration depth for YPtBi increased linearly instead of exponentially as it would for a conventional superconductor.
Compared with other cervical screening methods, Xiao added, photoacoustic imaging also has a much higher penetration depth by using ultrasound as the localizing signal, which is less scattered than light.
