the leakage current of silicon is less when compared with the leakage current of germanium.. hence scr's are made up of silicon than germanium.. hope tis one is useful to u all!- Vignesh.L(engineer, 1st year)
such a control rectifier that control or rectifier single phase. for that purpose we used SCR that is called single phase controlled rectifier.
IN IN = 1N: Refers to the number of junctions (1N= 1 junction). O= Germanium, A= rectifier diode, so OA = germanium rectifier diode.
conclusion of silicon control rectifier
A controlled wave rectifier converts the whole of the input waveform to one of constant polarity (positive or negative) at its output. Controlled wave rectification converts both polarities of the input waveform to DC (direct current), and is more resourceful.

conclusion of silicon control rectifier
It is a silicon-controlled rectifier, converting AC to DC for use in drawworks, mud pumps, etc.:silicon-controlled-rectifier
Because it is controlled by the gate current
A simple rectifier is a diode. It only has two terminals and will only allow electron flow in one direction only. A controlled rectifier (SCR=silicon controlled rectifier) has a third connection (gate). Which as the name suggests, is a gate that controls at which point the rectifier will work. It therefore has a level of control.There are various types and you would need the application specification, to get the best use of them.

i think to make earth feel better visit my blog for more at http://www.jewelryinworld.blogspot.com OA79 represents Germanium diode. O = germanium, A= rectifier diode.
In OA79, the letter A stands for rectifier diode and O stands for Germanium. It acts as a point contact germanium diode and also be replaced with 1N4148 depending on the circuit.
i got no idea mate
