Talk:Photochemistry

message: Added information on application of Photochemistry in industry (i.e. Chevron Phillips).  For full disclosure I am an employee of the company, but do not speak for the company.  I am also a novice Wiki editor, so apologies in advance.  --Dwdockter 12:46, 5 October 2007 (UTC)

message: Is the Tyndall Effect studied too in this science? If so, perhaps it could be added to the article.200.71.186.241 01:04, 12 September 2007 (UTC)
thread_title: Tyndall Effect

message: Notes to myself on what I think could be organized
*Famous scientists in the field of photochemistry
*Absorption
*Fluorescence
*Phosphoresence
*Quenching
*Equations???
*Optical Depth
*Anything we can "borrow" from physical chemistry ;)
*Machines that operate on some principals of photochemistry
*Molecular Orbitals
More later. Just notes for me, feel free to add/subtract and give me ideas, this will be a fun project to work on soon.

replies: text:  I think it would be nice to have some examples of photo-dimerization (anthracene dimerization) and photo-isomerization (azobenzene isomerization) to illustrate applications in applied photochemistry. The isomerization of the retinal chromophore in rhodospin is also a great example in living systems. --130.79.35.228 (talk) 14:50, 12 April 2010 (UTC)

message: Would not the single sentence in this section, that has just be re-added, be best moved to be the second sentence of the lead? It seems out of place where it is? --Bduke  (Discussion) 21:41, 1 January 2009 (UTC)

message: An IP has removed the spectrum diagram with summary "Removed blatantly incorrect diagram (whose wrongness was amplified by the caption!)". The removal seems justified. I have explained (I hope) what seems to be wrong with the diagram :Image:Spectre.svg at Talk:Terahertz radiation#Spectrum graph, where a related, derived, diagram (:File:Spectre Terahertz.svg) was also removed. 84user (talk) 23:19, 27 May 2009 (UTC)
thread_title:  Diagram misleading 

message: The topics photochemistry and photochemical reaction are very, very similar, it seems to be.  It is impossible to discuss photochemistry without talking about photochemical reactions, unless one simply talks about photoexcited states, absorption, or possibly relaxation etc.  Comments welcome.--Smokefoot (talk) 23:41, 19 June 2010 (UTC)

thread_title:  Mechanistic Organic Photochemistry 

message: :
Recently you deleted the mention of redox via single-electron transfer with the comment rm fairly useless statement. Is it not true that some photochemical reactions can involve redox via single-electron transfer? I am not an expert, but if the statement is true and suffers merely from being too brief, then I would prefer to remedy the problem by adding a specific example reaction. Such a remedy would also improve a number of other examples in the article.  Dirac66 (talk) 02:55, 14 December 2017 (UTC)
