[atomic physics] At the atomic level, when two atoms come into proximity, the highest energy, or valence, orbitals of the atoms change substantially and the electrons on the two atoms reorganize. One way to probe a correlated state is through the proximity effect. This phenomenon occurs when the correlations present in one degenerate system...

[audio] The proximity effect in audio is an increase in bass or low frequency response when a sound source is close to a microphone. ==Technical explanation== Proximity effect is a change in the frequency response of a microphone, having a directional pickup pattern, that produces an emphasis on lower frequencies. It is caused by the use of...

[electromagnetism] In a conductor carrying alternating current, if currents are flowing through one or more other nearby conductors, such as within a closely wound coil of wire, the distribution of current within the first conductor will be constrained to smaller regions. The resulting current crowding is termed as the proximity effect. Thi...

[electron beam lithography] A thin resist with a low electron density will reduce forward scattering. A light substrate (light nuclei) will reduce backscattering. When electron beam lithography is performed on substrates with `heavy` films, such as gold coatings, the backscatter effect will (depending on thickness) significantly increase. I...

[superconductivity] ==Origin of the effect== Electrons in a superconductor in the superconducting state are ordered in a very different way than in a normal metal, i.e. they are paired into cooper pairs. Furthermore, electrons in a material cannot be said to have a definitive position because of the momentum-position complementarity. In sol...

The difference in sound characteristics as a microphone is moved towards or away from a sound source. Generally a loss in bass response is experienced as the microphone is moved away. Often used by vocalists to add emphasis to their songs.
