English term

dark current

GBK English to Croatian Science Physics
Definition from Tyco Electronics Corporation:
The thermally induced current that exists in a photodiode in the absence of incident optical power.
Example sentences:
This voltage may be as low as 10 mV or as high as 50 V and the dark currents may vary from pA to μA depending upon the junction area and the process used. Dark current is always specified at a particular value of reverse applied voltage. (optoelectronics.perkinelmer.com)
The photodiode noise in is the sum of the thermal noise (or Johnson noise) ij of a resistor which approximates the shunt resistance and the shot noise isD and isL resulting from the dark current and the photocurrent. (Hamamatsu Corporation)
Dark current is dependent on temperature. While dark current may initially be low, it will increase as the device temperature increases. (tpub.com)

tamna struja

Ponekad se koristi i izraz struja tame.
Definition from own experience or research:
Tamna struja je struja koja teče kroz fotoosjetljivi element (fotodiodu, fototranzistor) ili sklop, bez prisustva vanjske pobude (svjetlosti).
Example sentences:
I kad svjetlo ne upada na fotodiodu, ipak postoji struja. Ona se naziva tamna struja. (medicinska fizika, M. Movre)
Kad je tranzistor neosvjetljen njime teče samo vrlo mala tamna struja koju čini preostala struja kolektora reda veličine od nekoliko nanoampera do nekoliko desetaka nanoampera. (wikipedia/Tranzistor)
Peer comment(s):

agree PeregrineFalcon : bogme da:) i meni se osobno više sviđa struja tame, jer to to i jest, ali i drugi naziv je u redu, a eto, i u rječnicima je taj izraz.

Hvala najljepša :) Mi smo na Elektronici1 (druga godina faksa?) govorili struja tame, pa me čudi što nema baš puno poveznica na netu. Ali valjda je i tamna struja u redu, ima smisla :)
