Interpretation Introduction

(a)

Interpretation:

The definition for the dark current.

Concept introduction:

A dark current is basically a very small amount of current that flows through a semiconductor device. It is different from the main current flowing through the semiconductor device.

Interpretation Introduction

(b)

Interpretation:

The definition of the transducer.

Concept introduction:

A transducer is basically used to convert the one form of energy into the other as per the requirement and its usage. A transducer gives the output signal to be some electric signal for the form of energy provided to it.

Interpretation Introduction

(c)

Interpretation:

The definition of the scattered radiation in a monochromator.

Concept introduction:

Scattered radiation is the amount of radiations other than the mainstream radiations and these are produced when the main radiations are obstructed by something.

Interpretation Introduction

(d)

Interpretation:

The definition of the source flicker noise.

Concept introduction:

The source flicker noise is a very common noise that is present in almost all of the electronic devices. This noise is due to the varying frequency of the spectrum.

Interpretation Introduction

(e)

Interpretation:

The definition of the cell positioning uncertainity.

Concept introduction:

The cell positioning uncertainty is the varying position of the cell connected to some circuit or some device.

Interpretation Introduction

(f)

Interpretation:

The definition of the beam splitter.

Concept introduction:

The beam splitter as the name suggests is a device used in the path of the beams to divide or to split the beams into different parts. The beam splitters can be made of several shapes and sizes.

An atomic beam is designed to function with (a) cadmium, (b) mercury. The source is an oven maintained at 380K with a small slit of dimensions 1.0cm x 1.0 x 10-3cm. The vapor pressure of cadmium is 0.13 Pa nd that of mercury is 12 Pa at this temperature. What is the atomic current (the number of atoms per second) in the beams?
Express a wavelength of 442 nm as (a) a frequency. (b) a wavenumber.
A photometer with a linear response to radiation gave a reading of 690 mV with a blank in the light path and 169 mV when the blank was replaced by an absorbing solution. Calculate *(a) the transmittance and absorbance of the absorbing solution. (b) the expected transmittance if the concentration of absorber is one half that of the original solution. *(c) the transmittance to be expected if the light path through the original solution is doubled.
