When we talk of an energy absorbing material, what weâre really talking about is a material that can control the release of energy in various ways. Energy is never lost â itâs only transferred into different forms. You probably remember this from basic science classes in middle school or high school.
Absorption spectra. Atoms do not only emit photons; they also absorb photons. If a photon hits an atom and the energy of the photon is the same as the gap between two electron energy levels in the atom, then the electron in the lower energy level can absorb the photon and jump up to the higher energy level.
