Capacitors

Schering bridge

Electronic components; Capacitors

An alternating current form of wheatstone bridge, used for comparing capacitances or for measuring the phase angle of a capacitor by comparison with a standard capacitor.

Semiconductor

Electronic components; Capacitors

A material whose resistivity is between that of insulators and conductors. The resistivity is often changed by light, heat, an electric field, or magnetic field. Current flow is often achieved by ...
