Abstract:Variation with time of illumination of the potential of a cell containing rhodamin B dissolved in absolute alcohol.-A theory of the variation of potential with time has been developed for the photoactive cell. It is assumed that the exciting light produces a chemical change in the electrolyte. Allowing for the effects of diffusion the expressionwhere E is the e.m.f., T is time of illumination, t is time after illumination ceases, / is the intensity of illumination, and K and B are constants, has been derived. … Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
