1. The Stark effect can lead to splitting of degenerate energy levels. 2. The use of the term " Stark effect " differs between the disciplines of chemistry and physics. 3. Even so, inheritance accounted for at most a small part of the stark effect of income on obesity. 4. Hendrik Kramers explained the Stark effect . 5. In 1974 the observation of Mollow triplets verified the form of the AC Stark effect using visible light. 6. When the split / shifted lines appear in absorption, the effect is called the "'inverse Stark effect " '. 7. The Franz Keldysh effect occurs in uniform, bulk semiconductors, unlike the quantum-confined Stark effect , which requires a quantum well. 8. The Stark effect is responsible for the pressure broadening ( Stark broadening ) of spectral lines by charged particles. 9. Probably his best known contribution to the field of physics is the Stark effect , which he discovered in 1913. 10. Measurements of the Stark effect under high field strengths confirmed the correctness of the quantum theory over the Bohr model.
