  2. Fused quartz - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fused_quartz

    Fused quartz, fused silica or quartz glass is a glass consisting of almost pure silica (silicon dioxide, SiO 2) in amorphous (non- crystalline) form. This differs from all other commercial glasses, such as soda-lime glass, lead glass, or borosilicate glass, in which other ingredients are added which change the glasses' optical and physical ...

  3. Crystal oscillator - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Crystal_oscillator

    A crystal oscillator is an electronic oscillator circuit that uses a piezoelectric crystal as a frequency-selective element. [1] [2] [3] The oscillator frequency is often used to keep track of time, as in quartz wristwatches, to provide a stable clock signal for digital integrated circuits, and to stabilize frequencies for radio transmitters and receivers.

  4. Quartz - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Quartz

    Quartz. Quartz is a hard, crystalline mineral composed of silica (silicon dioxide). The atoms are linked in a continuous framework of SiO 4 silicon–oxygen tetrahedra, with each oxygen being shared between two tetrahedra, giving an overall chemical formula of SiO 2. Quartz is, therefore, classified structurally as a framework silicate mineral ...

  5. Infrared heater - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Infrared_heater

    Infrared heater. An infrared heater or heat lamp is a heating appliance containing a high-temperature emitter that transfers energy to a cooler object through electromagnetic radiation. Depending on the temperature of the emitter, the wavelength of the peak of the infrared radiation ranges from 750 nm to 1 mm.

  6. Cuvette - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cuvette

    Cuvette. In laboratories, a cuvette (French: cuvette, lit. 'little vessel') is a small tube-like container with straight sides and a circular or square cross-section. It is sealed at one end, and made of a clear, transparent material such as plastic, glass, or fused quartz. Cuvettes are designed to hold samples for spectroscopic measurement ...

  7. DU spectrophotometer - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/DU_spectrophotometer

    The DU spectrophotometer or Beckman DU, introduced in 1941, was the first commercially viable scientific instrument for measuring the amount of ultraviolet light absorbed by a substance. This model of spectrophotometer enabled scientists to easily examine and identify a given substance based on its absorption spectrum, the pattern of light ...

  8. Mercury-vapor lamp - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mercury-vapor_lamp

    The small diagonal cylinder at the bottom of the arc tube is a resistor which supplies current to the starter electrode. A mercury-vapor lamp is a gas-discharge lamp that uses an electric arc through vaporized mercury to produce light. [1] The arc discharge is generally confined to a small fused quartz arc tube mounted within a larger soda lime ...

  9. Dispersive prism - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dispersive_prism

    Dispersive prism. In optics, a dispersive prism is an optical prism that is used to disperse light, that is, to separate light into its spectral components (the colors of the rainbow). Different wavelengths (colors) of light will be deflected by the prism at different angles. [1] This is a result of the prism material's index of refraction ...
