(under subclass 336.1) Subject matter wherein the radiant energy responsive means is electrically charged by incident radiation either by retention if incident charged particles or by means of the incident radiation raising the energy level of molecules in the signalling device sufficiently
enough to produce free electrons.
(1) Note. This is the residual locus for all radiation responsive signalling means including a device which is ionized by impinging radiation.
SEE OR SEARCH THIS CLASS, SUBCLASS:
361+, for means which emit light upon ionizing events which light is photoelectrically detected.
374+, for gas or vapor means rendered conductive by ionizing radiation.
