单词 quality factor
释义

Definition of quality factor in English:

quality factor

noun
Physics
  • 1A parameter of an oscillatory system or device, such as a laser, expressing the relationship between stored energy and energy dissipation.

    Example sentencesExamples
    • This so-called quality factor, or ‘Q,’ is much higher than the value of about 50 achieved by the Cornell team, although the NIST researchers had reached a Q of only 800 at the time they submitted their paper to PRL.
    • When DAC-AFM is used in liquids, the high viscosity of the medium dramatically reduces the quality factor of the cantilever with the consequent sensitivity lost.
    • The cantilever oscillation is anharmonic and asymmetric when the quality factor is low, in contrast with TM AFM in air, where the cantilever oscillation is approximately sinusoidal and symmetric.
    • The m 1 variables are the transformation of the rating scales used in the model from the ordinal y = 1 value to the continuous variable y *, which for instance ranges between 0 and 0.647 for the quality factor.
    • This relationship leads to the quality factor, Q, being a constant.
    1. 1.1 A figure expressing the ability of ionizing radiation to cause biological damage, relative to a standard dose of X-rays.
      Example sentencesExamples
      • The SI unit for dose equivalent is the sievert, which is measured in grays times a quality factor for the type of radiation and the weighting factor for the tissue irradiated.
      • The value of the quality factor for each type of radiation depends on the distribution of the absorbed energy in a mass of tissue.
      • A quality factor of from 2.3 to 10 is used for neutrons, depending on their energy, and a quality factor of 20 is used for alpha particles.
      • Fast moving gamma photons have a quality factor of about one, whereas alpha particles (which lose all of their energy over a very small path length) have quality factors nearer 20.
      • The dose equivalent in rems is numerically equal to the absorbed dose in rads multiplied by the quality factor, which, for most medical radiation, is one.

quality factor

noun
Physics
  • 1A parameter of an oscillatory system or device, such as a laser, representing the degree to which it is undamped and hence expressing the relationship between stored energy and energy dissipation.
