Preferred Label : response time;
Detailed label : response time, τR of a detector;
IUPAC definition : The time required for the detector output to go from the initial value to a percentage
(e.g. 99%) of the final value. In the case of an exponential behaviour of the detector
τR can be related to the time constant τc. The rise time τr is the time required for
the detector output to vary between given percentages (e.g. from 10% to 90%) of the
final value. Similarly, the fall time τf is the time required for the detector output
to vary between given percentages (e.g. from 90% to 10%) of the initial value.;
