Abstract

Equations are derived in parametric form for calculating the steady-state lux-ampere characteristics of photoresistors with an arbitrary concentration of deep levels at arbitrary excitation intensity. The conditions underlying the formation of the sublinear and superlinear segments of the lux-ampere curve as a function of the excitation intensity and the concentration and parameters of the deep levels can be determined from calculations according to the derived equations.
