Cavity ring-down spectroscopy — (CRDS) is a spectroscopic technique for measuring the transmission or more accurately, the absorbance of light through a material. CRDS can provide extremely sensitive measurements, allowing scientists to measure very small differences in the… … Wikipedia
Cavity wall — Cavity walls consist of two skins separated by a hollow space (cavity). The outer skin is commonly masonry. Masonry is an absorbent material, and therefor will slowly draw rainwater or even humidity into the wall. The cavity serves as a way to… … Wikipedia

Medullary cavity — The medullary cavity (medulla, innermost part) is the central cavity of bone shafts where red bone marrow and/or yellow bone marrow (adipose tissue) is stored; hence, the medullary cavity is also known as the marrow cavity. Located in the main… … Wikipedia
Progressive cavity pump — A progressive cavity pump is also known as a progressing cavity pump, eccentric screw pump or even just cavity pump and, as is common in engineering generally, these pumps can often be referred to by using a genericized trademark. Hence names can … Wikipedia
Optical cavity — An optical cavity or optical resonator is an arrangement of mirrors that forms a standing wave cavity resonator for light waves. Optical cavities are a major component of lasers, surrounding the gain medium and providing feedback of the laser… … Wikipedia
Vertical-cavity surface-emitting laser — The vertical cavity surface emitting laser (VCSEL; [v ɪxl] ) is a type of semiconductor laser diode with laser beam emission perpendicular from the top surface, contrary to conventional edge emitting semiconductor lasers (also in plane lasers)… … Wikipedia
