Sentences with phrase «resulting free electron»

The gamma rays strip electrons from the molecules in the surrounding air, and the resulting free electrons lose energy and readily attach to oxygen molecules to create elevated levels of negatively charged oxygen ions around the radioactive materials.

Not exact matches

A silicon crystal is doped by adding trace amounts of some other element that has either more free electrons than silicon's four (producing an electron surplus and making the result negative, or n - type) or fewer free electrons (producing a net electron deficit, and hence a positive, or p - type).
They capture the light and inject electrons as free charges carriers into the TiO2 resulting in current flow.

As a result, the chain reaction stops because the free radical becomes electrically balanced without the need to «steal» electrons and disrupt other molecules.
Healthy skin produces antioxidants that interfere with the process by which a free radical atom or molecule, which is missing an electron and is thus rendered unstable, attacks the nearest stable molecule and absconds with a replacement electron — a bit of thievery that results in damage to all components of a cell including DNA, proteins, lipids and its membrane.
They neutralize free radical damage by offering up one of their own electrons, thereby helping to prevent and repair cell and tissue breakdown that can result in further damage and disease — everything from wrinkles to hyperpigmentation.
Free radicals «steal» electrons from the lipids in cell membranes, resulting in cell damage.
The results of this study found that the Yerba Mate tea reduced lipid peroxidation (a process whereby free radicals «steal» electrons from the lipids in cell membranes, resulting in cell damage).
Healthy skin produces antioxidants that interfere with the process by which a free radical atom or molecule, which is missing an electron and is thus rendered unstable, attacks the nearest stable molecule to «steal» a replacement electron — a form of biological burglary that results in damage to all components of a cell including DNA, proteins, lipids and its membrane.
Sometimes (worst case scenario) when free radicals find electron love the result can be rapid cell division; free radicals can also harass healthy cells, leading to damaged or dying cells.
As a result the quantum of energy exchanged is never actually in a state of «free flight» between the two interacting electrons.
