| DefinitionThis is the residual class for methods and apparatus involving radiant energy. SCOPE OF THE CLASS This class provides for all methods and apparatus for using, generating, controlling or detecting radiant energy, combinations including such methods or apparatus, subcombinations of same and accessories therefore not classifiable elsewhere. | Lines with other classes and within this classMany other classes provide for methods and apparatus involving radiant energy, per se, or in combination when such methods or apparatus are also the subject matter of the class in question. In general, subject matter involving radiant energy is provided for in other classes on the basis of either a specific use of the radiant energy or a specific type of radiant energy. Classes explicitly providing for subject matter involving radiant energy are listed below and arranged according to the above described basis of classification followed by some miscellaneous classes. CLASSES PROVIDING FOR SPECIFIC USES OF RADIANT ENERGY See References to Other Classes for the following art areas: Uses of Radiant Energy for Separating and Assorting Uses of Radiant Energy for Treating Uses of Radiant Energy As a Medium of Control Uses of Radiant Energy for Testing Uses of Radiant Energy As a Medium of Communication CLASSES PROVIDING FOR SPECIFIC TYPES OF RADIANT ENERGY Classes Providing for Electron Space Discharge Type of Radiant Energy Visible Light Type Other Wave Type |
