Difference between Light meter and Photodetector

Light meter vs. Photodetector

A light meter is a device used to measure the amount of light. Photosensors or photodetectors are sensors of light or other electromagnetic energy.

Similarities between Light meter and Photodetector

Light meter and Photodetector have 4 things in common (in Unionpedia): Photomultiplier, Photoresistor, Photovoltaics, Refractive index.

Photomultiplier

Photomultiplier tubes (photomultipliers or PMTs for short), members of the class of vacuum tubes, and more specifically vacuum phototubes, are extremely sensitive detectors of light in the ultraviolet, visible, and near-infrared ranges of the electromagnetic spectrum.

Photoresistor

A photoresistor (or light-dependent resistor, LDR, or photo-conductive cell) is a light-controlled variable resistor.

Photovoltaics

Photovoltaics (PV) is a term which covers the conversion of light into electricity using semiconducting materials that exhibit the photovoltaic effect, a phenomenon studied in physics, photochemistry, and electrochemistry.

Refractive index

In optics, the refractive index or index of refraction of a material is a dimensionless number that describes how light propagates through that medium.

Light meter and Photodetector Comparison

Light meter has 57 relations, while Photodetector has 88. As they have in common 4, the Jaccard index is 2.76% = 4 / (57 + 88).
