Abstract
The results presented are of an investigation into the photoelectric properties of polycrystalline cadmium sulfide layers obtained by thermal evaporation in vacuum. In producing the layers the substrate temperature was varied over the range 80 °–500 ° C, and in addition the layers were heated in air. It was found that the spectral distribution of the photocurrent, the absolute and relative phbtosensitivity, and the relaxation time depend to a marked extent on the substrate temperature. These differences are connected with a change in the degree of defectiveness and phase compositions of the polycrystalline cadmium sulfide layers.
