Members of this genus can be distinguished from related mites by the sclerotized anal and ventral plates being completely separated.

The gold was stacked in earthenware plates and placed in a pot, each plate separated by powdered stone or brick dust.

The beetle's exoskeleton is made up of numerous plates, called sclerites, separated by thin sutures.

When cool, the pack is sheared slightly undersized from the final dimensions and the plates separated by openers.

Beyond the gas chamber lies a thick sandwich of lead plates separated by ultrasensitive detectors that can register a single photon of light.

Solid state hygrometers are designed to have two metal plates separated by a small air gap.

Remember that a capacitor consists of two conducting plates separated by an insulator, which could be solid, liquid, air or even a vacuum.

This mixture is placed between two parallel, conductive plates separated by a gap of 10 to 100 micrometres.

Two plates separated by a small distance also act as a capacitor, even in vacuum.

Capacitance hygrometers consist of two charged plates separated by a polymer membrane dielectric.
