Description

A detector is a device that converts the light falling upon it into a current or voltage that is proportional to the light intensity. The most common devices in current use for fluorometry and spectrophotometry are photodiodes and photodiode arrays.

Abbreviation: Detector


MitoPedia methods: Fluorometry, Spectrophotometry
