Short example sentences

Electron multipliers A photomultiplier is a phototube whose sensitivity is greatly increased through the use of electron multiplication. (18 words)

For example, the yield of a phototube is measured in phe/keVee ( photoelectrons per keV electron-equivalent energy). (18 words)

His experiment directly measured potentials, not electron kinetic energy: he found the electron energy by relating it to the maximum stopping potential (voltage) in a phototube. (26 words)

Longer example sentences

For example, an increase in frequency results in an increase in the maximum kinetic energy calculated for an electron upon liberation – ultraviolet radiation would require a higher applied stopping potential to stop current in a phototube than blue light. (39 words)

His experiment directly measured potentials, not electron kinetic energy: he found the electron energy by relating it to the maximum stopping potential (voltage) in a phototube. (26 words)
