cesium — /see zee euhm/, n. a rare, highly reactive, soft, metallic element of the alkali metal group, used chiefly in photoelectric cells. Symbol: Cs; at. wt.: 132.905; at. no.: 55; sp. gr.: 1.9 at 20°C; melts at 28.5°C. Also, caesium. [1930 35; < NL,… … Universalium
Video camera tube — In older video cameras, before the mid to late 1980s, a video camera tube or pickup tube was used instead of a charge coupled device (CCD) for converting an optical image into an electrical signal. Several types were in use from the 1930s to the… … Wikipedia
Image dissector — The image dissector was an early all electronic television camera tube invented by Philo Farnsworth.Most experimental television systems in the 1920s and 1930s made use of an electromechanical system, usually a Nipkow disk combined with a single… … Wikipedia
Work function — In solid state physics, the work function is the minimum energy (usually measured in electron volts) needed to remove an electron from a solid to a point immediately outside the solid surface (or energy needed to move an electron from the Fermi… … Wikipedia
Atomic orbital — The shapes of the first five atomic orbitals: 1s, 2s, 2px, 2py, and 2pz. The colors show the wave function phase. These are graphs of ψ(x,y,z) functions which depend on the coordinates of one electron. To see the elongated shape of ψ(x,y,z)2… … Wikipedia
Ionizing radiation — consists of highly energetic particles or waves that can detach (ionize) at least one electron from an atom or molecule. Ionizing ability depends on the energy of the impinging individual particles or waves, and not on their number. A large flood … Wikipedia
