A collector was an engineering tool that could gather and store energy.
In 1986, it was used by Nyota Uhura and Pavel Chekov for collecting high energy photons from a nuclear fission reactor on board the . Later, the photons from this device were streamed back into the dilithium chamber of the . This was done to re-crystallize the dilithium crystals. ()
