Noise In Cadmium Sulfide & Cadmium Selenide Photoconductive Cells, Edward Foster Aug 1967

Noise In Cadmium Sulfide & Cadmium Selenide Photoconductive Cells, Edward Foster

Masters Theses & Specialist Projects

The primary object of this investigation is to design a system, including equipment and procedures, that can be used to evaluate the noise characteristics of photoconductive cells. The data once collected must be in a comprehensive and useful form. The secondary object is to use this system to evaluate a large number of cells of various types and to compare their noise profiles in a manner such that definite conclusions can be drawn concerning the absolute noise levels and profiles generated by the various cell types and the relations that may exist between the cells' noise output and the way …


Environmental Effects On The Resistivity Of Palladium-Silver Alloy Films In High Vacuum, Frank Snyder Jun 1967

Environmental Effects On The Resistivity Of Palladium-Silver Alloy Films In High Vacuum, Frank Snyder

Masters Theses & Specialist Projects

The reported usage of the palladium-silver alloy films as resistors in the electronics industry has been in encapsulated form. By mounting the resistor inside vacuum electron devices, there is the possibility of eliminating the encapsulation. A literature search has revealed no reported efforts of experiments with unencapsulated resistors and certainly no reports of the palladium-silver alloy resistor in vacuum tubes or other high vacuum environments. Therefore, the research reported in this thesis will concentrate on the environmental effects on resistivity of palladium-silver alloy films in high vacuum.
