In certain materials, the changes in the electrical characteristics caused by photon absorption.
Industry:Telecommunications
In certain materials, the increase in electrical conductivity that results from increases in the number of free carriers generated when photons are absorbed. Note: The photons must have quantum energy sufficient to overcome the band-gap in the material in question.
Industry:Telecommunications
In certain materials, the phenomenon that results in photoconductivity.
Industry:Telecommunications
In character recognition, the distance between the two edges of a stroke, measured perpendicular to the stroke centerline.
Industry:Telecommunications
In character recognition, the line of discontinuity between a side of a stroke and the background, obtained by averaging, over the length of the stroke, the irregularities resulting from the printing and detecting processes.
Industry:Telecommunications
In color television technology, a calibration process involving adjustment of the relative amplitudes of the signal levels representing the tristimulus colors to (a) achieve a camera output signal or (b) monitor display such that the resulting additive mixture of the excited phosphors accurately creates the perception of white.
Industry:Telecommunications
In color television technology, electronic alteration of the color information content to effect a change in the color balance of the video signal.
Industry:Telecommunications
In color television technology, of a receiver, the circuitry that separates the chroma information from the video (gray-scale) information and processes the former into its constituent signal components.
Industry:Telecommunications
In color television technology, the instantaneous phase of the chroma signal with respect to that of the color burst signal. Note: The phase of the chroma signal at any given instant determines the color balance of the video signal at that instant.
