Tricky Question in Electronics Silver Oxide
Now this may sound a little strange but I am having a discussion
in another audio group and need some "hard evidence" on this
subject.
The other party has made this statement:
"Silver Oxide is an insulator - no resistance value can be
ascribed"
I believe it to be incorrect and at least Silver Oxide is a
semi-conductor or has a measurable resistance.
Despite intensive Googling I (or the other side for that matter)
can not find any reputable site that will verify/disprove this
point.
So guys I know there are some fairly cluey people out there so
how about offering an answer and some proof? Preferably
something referenced to a text book, university or research
institute. I am not interested in any "snake oil" sites.
One further point Silver Sulphate (the dark tarnish that forms)
is *not* the point in question I am only concerned with Silver
Oxide - Silver that has reacted only with oxygen.
Regards TT
TIA
