The bacterial phase of inactive growth, where bacteria prepare for division, is called the lag phase.
During this phase, bacteria are not actively multiplying but are instead adjusting to their new environment, synthesizing necessary enzymes and molecules, and potentially repairing any damage.
A device based on the photoelectric effect is called a photodiode.
A photodiode is a semiconductor device that converts light into electrical current by absorbing photons and generating electron-hole pairs, essentially utilizing the photoelectric effect.
