Electronic engineering

copper-oxide photocell

Engineering; Electronic engineering

A photoelectric cell in which the light-sensitive material is copper oxide.

color meter

Engineering; Electronic engineering

A photoelectric instrument for measuring color values, and comparing and matching colors.

barrier-layer cell

Engineering; Electronic engineering

A photovoltaic cell, such as the copper oxide or selenium type, in which photons striking the barrier layer produce the potential difference.

AT-cut crystal

Engineering; Electronic engineering

A piezoelectric crystal cut at a 35- degree angle, with respect to the optical axis of the quartz. The frequency of such a crystal does not appreciably change with variations in temperature.

BT-cut crystal

Engineering; Electronic engineering

A piezoelectric plate cut from a quartz crystal at an angle of rotation (relative to the x-axis) of -49°. It has a zero temperature coefficient of frequency at approximately 25°C. Also see crystal ...

DT-cut crystal

Engineering; Electronic engineering

A piezoelectric plate cut from a quartz crystal at an angle of rotation about the z-axis of –53 degrees. It has a zero temperature coefficient of frequency at approximately 30 degrees Celsius. Also ...

CT-cut crystal

Engineering; Electronic engineering

A piezoelectric plate cut from a quartz crystal at an angle of rotation around the X-axis of +38°. Such a plate has a zero temperature coefficient of frequency at 25°C. Also see crystal axes and ...
