- absorption edge
-
a discontinuity in the graph of the absorption coefficient of a substance plotted against the wavelength of x-rays being absorbed, representing the minimum energy necessary to free electrons from particular shells of the atoms of the substance. Also called absorption discontinuity, absorption limit.[1925-29]

▪ physicsin physics, abrupt increase in the degree of absorption of electromagnetic radiation by a substance as the frequency of the radiation is increased. Absorption edges are particularly characteristic of the behaviour of X-rays (X-ray) and are related to the sharply defined levels of energy that electrons (electron) occupy in atoms (atom).* * *
