  2. Flame ionization detector - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Flame_ionization_detector

    A flame ionization detector (FID) is a scientific instrument that measures analytes in a gas stream. It is frequently used as a detector in gas chromatography . The measurement of ions per unit time makes this a mass sensitive instrument. [ 1 ]

  3. Fault detection and isolation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fault_detection_and_isolation

    Fault detection, isolation, and recovery (FDIR) is a subfield of control engineering which concerns itself with monitoring a system, identifying when a fault has occurred, and pinpointing the type of fault and its location. Two approaches can be distinguished: A direct pattern recognition of sensor readings that indicate a fault and an analysis ...

  4. Discharge ionization detector - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Discharge_ionization_detector

    A DID is an ion detector which uses a high-voltage electric discharge to produce ions. The detector uses an electrical discharge in helium to generate high energy UV photons and metastable helium which ionizes all compounds except helium. [1] The ions produce an electric current, which is the signal output of the detector. The greater the ...

  5. Stacking fault - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stacking_fault

    In crystallography, a stacking fault is a planar defect that can occur in crystalline materials. [ 1 ] [ 2 ] Crystalline materials form repeating patterns of layers of atoms. Errors can occur in the sequence of these layers and are known as stacking faults.

  6. Evaporative light scattering detector - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Evaporative_light...

    An evaporative light scattering detector (ELSD) is a destructive chromatography detector, used in conjunction with high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC), [1] ultra high-performance liquid chromatography (UHPLC), [2] purification liquid chromatography such as flash or preparative chromatography (using a splitter), countercurrent or ...

  7. Fluorescent penetrant inspection - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fluorescent_penetrant...

    Liquid penetrant inspection of non-magnetic aircraft metal parts. Fluorescent penetrant inspection (FPI) is a type of dye penetrant inspection in which a fluorescent dye is applied to the surface of a non-porous material in order to detect defects that may compromise the integrity or quality of the part in question.

  8. Molecular sensor - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Molecular_sensor

    In terms of supramolecular chemistry, chemosensing is an example of host–guest chemistry, where the presence of a guest (the analyte) at the host site (the sensor) gives rise to recognition event (e.g. sensing) that can be monitored in real time.

  9. Scanning transmission electron microscopy - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Scanning_transmission...

    Typical X-ray detectors for electron microscopes cover only a small solid angle, which makes X-ray detection relatively inefficient since X-rays are emitted from the sample in every direction. However, detectors covering large solid angles have been recently developed, [ 27 ] and atomic resolution X-ray mapping has even been achieved.
