Abstract

The influence of additional illumination on the photoconductivity of planar cadmium selenide/poly(ethylene terephthalate) (CdSe/PET) thin-film structures has been studied. The dependence of the photoconductivity of CdSe/PET samples on the wavelength and intensity of additional illumination is determined. The effect of the frequency of modulation of the exciting light on the spectra of optical quenching of photocurrent is considered.
