Phosphorescence is a type of photoluminescence related to fluorescence. It occurs when a material absorbs light or electromagnetic radiation and then re-emits it over a longer period. Unlike fluorescence, which involves the immediate re-emission of light (typically within nanoseconds), phosphorescence involves a delayed re-emission that can last from microseconds to several hours or even days.
