noun🔗ShareКатодAn electrode, of a cell or other electrically polarized device, through which a positive current of electricity flows outwards (and thus, electrons flow inwards). It usually, but not always, has a positive voltage."Electrons flowed into the cathode of the battery as it charged. "Электроны текли в катод батареи, когда она заряжалась.electronicsphysicstechnologydeviceelectricmachinescienceChat with AIVocabulary GamePractice Reading
noun🔗ShareКатод(by extension) The electrode at which chemical reduction of cations takes place, usually resulting in the deposition of metal onto the electrode."During electrolysis, copper ions in the solution move to the cathode, where they gain electrons and form a solid copper coating. "Во время электролиза ионы меди в растворе перемещаются к катоду, где они приобретают электроны и образуют твердое медное покрытие.chemistryelectronicsphysicsmaterialscienceelementChat with AIVocabulary GamePractice Reading
noun🔗ShareКатодThe electrode from which electrons are emitted into a vacuum tube or gas-filled tube."In older televisions, the cathode inside the picture tube shot electrons onto the screen to create the picture. "В старых телевизорах катод внутри кинескопа направлял электроны на экран, чтобы создать изображение.electronicsdevicetechnicalphysicsmachineenergyscienceChat with AIVocabulary GamePractice Reading
noun🔗ShareКатодThat electrode of a semiconductor device which is connected to the n-type material of a p-n junction."In the LED circuit we built in class, the cathode, connected to the n-type semiconductor, was marked with a shorter lead. "В собранной нами на уроке схеме светодиода катод, подключенный к полупроводнику n-типа, был отмечен более коротким выводом.electronicsdevicetechnologymaterialphysicsscienceChat with AIVocabulary GamePractice Reading
