Nyquist frequency signal, whereas "Nyquist frequency" is a property of a discrete-time system. When the function domain is time, sample rates are usually expressed in samples per second, and the unit of Nyquist frequency is cycles per second (hertz). When the function domain is distance, as in an image sampling system, the sample rate might be dots per inch and the corresponding Nyquist frequency would be in cycles/inch. Referring again to Figure 1, undersampling of the sinusoid at 0.6 f is what allows there to be a lower-frequency "alias", which is a different function that produces the same set of samples. That
Langmuir (unit) Langmuir (unit) The langmuir (symbol: L) is a unit of exposure (or dosage) to a surface ("e.g." of a crystal) and is used in ultra-high vacuum (UHV) surface physics to study the adsorption of gases. It is a practical unit, and is not dimensionally homogeneous, and so is only used in this one field. It is named after American physicist Irving Langmuir. The langmuir is defined by multiplying the pressure of the gas by the time of exposure. One langmuir corresponds to an exposure of 10 Torr during one second. For example, exposing a surface to a gas pressure of
