61Semiconductor device — Semiconductor devices are electronic components that exploit the electronic properties of semiconductor materials, principally silicon, germanium, and gallium arsenide. Semiconductor devices have replaced thermionic devices (vacuum tubes) in most …
62Scintillator — Scintillation crystal surrounded by various scintillation detector assemblies …
63Valve amplifier — A valve amplifier or tube amplifier is a type of electronic amplifier that make use of vacuum tubes instead of solid state semiconductor devices (such as transistors). As any other electronic amplifier they serve to increase the power and/or… …
64microscope — /muy kreuh skohp /, n. 1. an optical instrument having a magnifying lens or a combination of lenses for inspecting objects too small to be seen or too small to be seen distinctly and in detail by the unaided eye. 2. (cap.) Astron. the… …
65PERDaix — (Proton Electron Radiation Detector Aix la Chapelle) is a novel,small and light weight magnet spectrometer to measure the charge and mass dependent solar modulation periodically for deeper understanding of cosmic rays.[1] For a better… …
66Synthetic diamond — Synthetic diamonds of various colors grown by the high pressure high temperature technique Synthetic diamond is diamond produced in a technological process; as opposed to natural diamond, which is created in geological processes. Synthetic… …
67Energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy — (EDS, EDX or EDXRF) is an analytical technique used for the elemental analysis or chemical characterization of a sample. As a type of spectroscopy, it relies on the investigation of a sample through interactions between electromagnetic radiation… …
68Microbolometer — A microbolometer is a specific type of bolometer used as a detector in a thermal camera. Infrared radiation with wavelengths between 7.5 14 μm strikes the detector material, heating it, and thus changing its electrical resistance. This resistance …
69Rutherford backscattering spectroscopy — Rutherford backscattering spectrometry (RBS) is an analytical technique used in materials science. Sometimes referred to as high energy ion scattering (HEIS) spectrometry, RBS is used to determine the structure and composition of materials by… …
70Cosmic ray — For the film, see Cosmic Ray (film). Cosmic radiation redirects here. For some background types of cosmic radiation, see cosmic background radiation and cosmic background. The energy spectrum for cosmic rays Cosmic rays are energetic charged… …
