Abstract

820,547. Photo-electric cells. RADIO CORPORATION OF AMERICA. Nov. 16, 1955 [Dec. 3, 1954], No. 32841/55. Class 37. A method for producing a photoconductive layer comprises the step of forming a mixture including a substance from the group cadmium sulphide, selenide and sulphoselenide and a solvent therefor, adding to the mixture activator proportions of a material from the group silver and copper and of a material from the group chlorine, bromine and iodine, crystallizing the substance from the solvent, and removing all the solvent by heating to leave a continuous layer of interlocked sintered crystals. The solvent may consist of cadmium chloride, bromide, or iodide and ammonium chloride may be added to it to convert any oxide to chloride. In one example 100 grams of cadmium sulphide, 10 grams of cadmium chloride, 1.7 ml. of 0.1 molar solution of copper chloride and 500 ml. of water are mixed in a blender, the mixture sprayed or brushed on a borosilicate glass plate and the assembly fired at 600‹ C. in a restricted air supply. Mica, quartz, or ceramic may be used instead of borosilicate glass as a base. The copper chloride may alternatively be introduced into the mixture by volatilization during the firing. A photo-conductive cell may be completed by applying electrodes in the form of silver dispersed in a resin to the layer, or by silk screening and evaporating, spraying, or sputtering on, Al, Pt, Ag, Au electrodes. Alternatively electrodes, e.g. comprising interdigitating fingers 25, may be formed on the baseplate 23 before the layer 21 is applied, as by exposure of a heated glass base to the vapour of silicon, tin, or titanium chloride followed by treatment in a reducing atmosphere, or by application of stannic chloride dissolved in absolute alcohol and glacial acetic acid. Such a cell exhibits a panchromatic response and has a high speed of response.
