Abstract

Technological aspects of the formation of photoresistive structures for an ultraviolet region of the optical spectrum based on a composite from lead selenide and selenite are considered. Using a chosen set of light-emitting diodes, the photoelectric sensitivity of the samples in a spectral region of 315–780 nm has been studied. The photoresistive structures are shown to possess maximal sensitivity in a ultraviolet region of wave-lengths of 315–430 nm.
