Many minerals fluoresce when irradiated with light.
What is the energy transfer mechanism for the transfer say when a mineral is irradiated with a Ultraviolet light of wavelenght 254 nanometers but not if irradiated at 300 nanometers. Is the wavelenght matching a resonant mode in the mineral and is it related to the size of the molecules? Is it like matching impedance in an antenna?
