photoconductor x
photoconductor
A light-sensitive resistor in which resistance decreases with increase in light intensity when illuminated. The device consists of a thin single-crystal or polycrystalline film of compound...
photoconductor contact
Material used to integrate photoconductors into electro-optical systems. It should provide low resistance to the flow of charge, avoid recombination of the charge carriers, inject only majority...
infrared photoconductor
A photoconductor that demonstrates increased conductivity during its exposure to infrared radiation.
BLIP
background-limited infrared photoconductor
photoconductive cell

photoconductive detector
A device for detecting visual and infrared radiation using a photoconductor as the principle sensing element.
photoconductive detector
A device for detecting visual and infrared radiation using a photoconductor as the principle sensing element.
radiographic amplifier screen
A solid-state panel of the photoconductor-electroluminescent type. The photoconductive layer, sensitive to x-rays, is coated by the electroluminescent, which gives the visible image. When the former...
rise time
Measurement of the time elapsed during the current output change from 10 to 90 percent in a photoconductor.
storage time
Interval between cutting off a photoconductor's signal and the fall of current output to 90 percent.
