EXPONENTIAL RATE [5 records]

Record 1 2015-09-09

English

Subject field(s)
  • Optics
  • Biophysics
  • Scientific Instruments
DEF

... an imaging technique for producing an image based on the differences in the exponential decay rate of the fluorescence from a fluorescent sample.

CONT

The lifetime of the fluorophore signal, rather than its intensity, is used to create the image in FLIM. This has the advantage of minimizing the effect of photon scattering in thick layers of sample.

French

Domaine(s)
  • Optique
  • Biophysique
  • Instruments scientifiques
DEF

[...] technique consistant à mesurer les temps de vie de fluorescence d'un fluorophore pour chaque pixel de l'image.

OBS

[Les fluorophores] ne sont alors plus détectés selon leurs longueurs d'ondes d'émission mais seulement selon leur temps de vie.

Record 2 2003-01-22

English

Subject field(s)
  • Telecommunications Transmission
CONT

The syllabic filter acts as a low-pass filter for the output signal from the overload algorithm... The slope-voltage output of the syllabic filter is the modulating input to the PAM [Pulse Amplitude Modulator]. The step-function response of the syllabic filter is related to the syllabic rate of speech, is independent of the sampling rate, and is exponential in nature. When the overload algorithm output is true, a charging curve is applicable. When this output is false, a discharging curve is applicable.

Record 3 2002-07-17

English

Subject field(s)
  • Economic Conditions and Forecasting
OBS

These concepts [the Harrod-Domar growth models] can be illuminated by some interesting models of balanced compound-interest(or "exponential") growth developed by Sir Roy Harrod in England and professor E. Domar in America. This theory has two aspects : the long-term "natural rate of growth" and the so-called "warranted rate of growth".

English

Subject field(s)
  • Investment

CONT

Globalization is creating new markets, new competitors, new products, and new business structures at an exponential rate. Technology advances are also dramatically accelerating the pace of business and the volatility of financial markets.

French

Domaine(s)
  • Investissements et placements
  • Phraséologie des langues de spécialité
CONT

La mondialisation engendre de nouveaux marchés, fait surgir de nouveaux concurrents, donne naissance à de nouveaux produits et modifie les structures d'entreprise avec une rapidité fulgurante. Les progrès technologiques ont aussi pour conséquence d'accélérer la marche des affaires et d'augmenter la volatilité des marchés financiers, [...].
