Abstract

648,038. Dry contact rectifiers. WESTING- HOUSE ELECTRIC INTERNATIONAL CO. Nov. 10, 1948, No. 29241. Convention date, Nov. 29, 1947. Drawing to Specification. [Class 37] [Also in Group XL (b)] A dry contact rectifier or light-sensitive device comprises a base with its surface coated with selenium having a blocking layer of thallous selenide produced by immersing the selenium surface in a water solution of 0.01 normal concentration of thallous hydroxide at 25‹ C. for about 20 seconds ; and a counterelectrode of cadmium or cadmium-tin alloy is applied before or after annealing the element at 185‹ C. for 6-16 hours. The base-plate comprises a sand-blasted steel plate which is then nickel-plated and has a central hole for a spindle, the plate being rapidly rotated after immersion in molten selenium.
