Concept explainers
(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.
(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.
(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.
(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.
(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.
(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.

- write a summary of each of the techniques for measuring vacancyconcentrations, noted therein. (1) Measurements of the quenched-in residual electricalresistivity of aluminium rapidly cooled from temperatures be-low about 800 K with initial quenching rates of 2 × 106 K s−1give the enthalpy of formation of monovacancies H F1V =(0.65 ± 0.01) eV.(2) Comparison of the quenching data with high-temperature differential-dilatometry data gives the monova-cancy formation entropy SF1V = (0.76 ± 0.4)kB (kB =Boltzmann’s constant) and the low-temperature resistivity perunit concentration of vacancies ρ1V = (1.9 ± 0.1) μm.(3) The binding enthalpy of divacancies in Al is H B2V =(0.17 5 ± 0.02 5) eV. This is in agreement with earlier ex-perimental determinations by Doyama and Koehler 48) and byLevy et al. 49, 50) but in marked contrast to the claim of Carlinget al., 23) based on computations with the generalized gradi-ent approximation, that in Al H B2V is zero or even negativeand therefore the…arrow_forwardIn some IR spectra appearing in research articles, the bands have their base at the bottom of the graph and the peaks at the top (like stalagmites); however, in other spectra the bands appear "inverted" (stalactites). Only one of the following is an acceptable explanation.(A). "Inverted" spectra have negative absorbances because the absorptivity coefficient of the species of which the spectrum is recorded is negative(B). It depends on the optical configuration of the instrument: in some equipment the monochromator is between the source and the sample and in others between the sample and the detector(C). Some spectra are transmittance and others are absorbance(D). Everything depends on the number of lenses in the equipment's optics; if this number is odd, the spectrum comes out invertedarrow_forwardA Dubosq colorimeter consists of a cell of fixed path length and a cell of variable path length. By adjusting the length of the latter until the transmission through the two cells is the same. the concentration of the second solution can be inferred from that of the former. Suppose that a plantdye of concentration 25 μg dm-3 is added to the fixed cell. the length of which is 1.55 em. Then a solution of the same dye. but of unknown concentration. is added to the second cel l. It is found that the same t ransmittance is obtained when the length of the second cel l is adjusted to 1.18 em. What is the concentration of the second solution?arrow_forward
