What's the difference between deflect and deflector?
Deflect
Definition:
(v. t.) To cause to turn aside; to bend; as, rays of light are often deflected.
(v. i.) To turn aside; to deviate from a right or a horizontal line, or from a proper position, course or direction; to swerve.

(16) The maximum conduction velocity of 70 to 80 meters per second corresponded to an initial small deflection, with most fibers conducting at slower rates.

(20) Crystal Palace 1-3 Liverpool (Delaney 78) 78 min: Damien Delaney tries a speculative shot from distance, which is deflected past Simon Mignolet off the back of Glen Johnson, who had failed to close down the Palace defender and was on the half-turn.
Deflector
Definition:
(n.) That which deflects, as a diaphragm in a furnace, or a cone in a lamp (to deflect and mingle air and gases and help combustion).
Example Sentences:
(1) This miscalibration, in turn, generates the orientation bias observed for deflector-loft birds.
(2) The tip of the fiberpyeloscope can be deflected 90 degrees up or down from the basic position with a hand-manipulated angle deflector know on the fiberpyeloscope grip.
(3) Results from a field trial involving 23 Norwegian dairy herds support the theory that deflector shields inserted into the teatcup liner can reduce the risk of intramammary infection.
(4) There were no significant physiologic or subjective differences between the full-face mask respirators with and without the nasal deflector in place.
(5) The resolution of the ultrasonic scan is not significantly affected by the deflector.
(6) Catheters for selective catheterization of the right and left inferior petrosal sinuses have been developed to replace the complex tip-deflector catheter-guide-wire system currently used.
(7) Curved guide wires and deflector assemblies may assist in superselective catheterization of the tributaries of the portal vein.
(8) In 19 consecutive children with aortic valve stenosis, the left ventricle was entered retrogradely with a Gensini catheter guided by a tip-deflector guidewire which could produce any desirable degree of curvature at its tip.
(9) The special optical design allows transfer of the pupil information necessary to the imaging of the differential phase contrast images during beam deflection and the use of acousto-optic deflectors with the associated correction system enables real time imaging.
(10) Deflector lofts consist of a 'pinwheel' arrangement of four stationary deflector panels attached to the sides of a cube-shaped cage.
(11) The behaviour of controls demonstrated that the time the experimentals had spent in each kind of deflector cage had been long enough to produce the corresponding deflections in initial orientation.
(12) This inexpensive ultrasonic deflector is capable of performing the functions offered by the expensive ultrasonic aspiration-biopsy transducer.
(13) A simple technique employing a deflector guide wire allows catheter reposition in a very short time without the need for catheter withdrawal.
(14) In practice, "perfect focus," as defined above, is established with a beam deflector ("wobbler"), to which underfocus is then applied routinely by reference to a table.
(15) Or put another way: Wendi, as the pie deflector (the Times piece opens with a Tiger Mom reference), is the only Murdoch who looks good, so why shouldn't she grab the chance and separate herself from the others?
(16) It was established that the application of deflectors lowers considerably the effectiveness of free ventilation.
(17) Use of a timed, pulsed deflector system enables sufficiently short exposures to be obtained to eliminate blurring due to Brownian motion.
(18) This disappearance of the deflector-loft effect in the presence of anti-cheating slats suggests that the positions of the deflector panels in the two experimental lofts must be differentially influencing important visual orientation cues reaching the birds housed inside.
(19) As part of a long-term study designed to test whether orientation cues other than odors might also be involved in creating the deflector-loft effect, we carried out experiments in upstate New York, USA, in which deflector lofts were modified to reverse the direction of light reflected from the Plexiglas panels while leaving the rotation of winds unchanged.
