LDR | | The internal components of a photoelectric control for a typical American streetlight. The photoresistor is facing rightwards, and controls whether current flows through the heater which opens the main power contacts. At night, the heater cools, closing the power contacts, energizing the street light. The heater/bimetal mechanism provides a built-in time-delay. | | streetlight | resistor | resistance | semiconductor | frequency | photons | electrons | conduction band | hole | resistance | valence band | bandgap | dopants | dynamic compressors | Lead sulfide | indium antimonide | Ge | Cu | infrared | infrared astronomy | infrared spectroscopy | | Optoelectronics | Phototransistors | Categories | Resistive components | Optical devices | Sensors |
