  Verfahren zur Herstellung von   ultrarote mpssndlichen Selenzellen.   



   Es ist bekannt, dass lichtempfindliche Zellen von besonderer Zusammensetzung. z. B. SelenTellur, die Eigenschaft haben, unter dem Einfluss der ultraroten Strahlung ihren elektrischen Widerstand zu ändern, dass sie also infolge ihrer geringen Trägheit in Verbindung mit elektrischen   Verstärkern zum   Nachweise sehr geringer Strahlungsintensitäten im Ultrarot geeignet sind. Da es bekannt ist, dass durch die Wirkung der   Atmosphäre.   insbesondere durch den Wasserdampfgehalt der Luft. die Empfindlichkeit solcher Zellen infolge chemischer Umsetzungen im Laufe der Zeit ganz bedeutend verschlechtert wird. schliesst man die fertige Zelle unter Verwendung einer geeigneten Halterung in ein vollkommen luftdichtes Gefäss ein, welches ein ultrarot durchlässiges Fenster hat.

   Die in dem Gefäss befindliche Luft wird durch Anwendung eines geeigneten Trockenmittels, z. B. Phosphorpentoxyd. vollkommen von Wasserdampf gereinigt bzw. die Zelle wird evakuiert. Die Erfindung betrifft ein, gewisse Nachteile des Bekannten vermeidendes Verfahren zur Herstellung von ultrarotempfindlichen Selenzellen und besteht darin, dass die Zelle in einer Atmosphäre von inertem Gas formiert   wird. welches gegebenenfalls nach   erfolgter Formierung wieder abgepumpt wird. 



   Für das thermische Formieren von Zellen hat sich das folgende Verfahren besonders bewährt. 



  Nachdem in geeigneter Weise auf der Zelle das ultrarotempfindliche Material aufgetragen ist (z. B. durch   Kathodenzerstäubung),   wird sie in einen Behälter aus ultrarotdurchlässigem Glas oder Quarzglas eingeschmolzen, wobei eine vakuumdiehte   Stromzuführung   zu der Zelle und eine stabile Halterung vorgesehen ist. Das Gefäss wird evakuiert und gemäss der Erfindung mit sorgfältig gereinigtem inertem Gas, insbesondere Argon, von geeignetem Druck gefüllt. Argon hat sich hiebei besonders bewährt. 



  Es wird nämlich die sonst bei der thermischen Formierung auftretende Verdampfung der ultrarotempfindlichen Schicht durch die Verwendung von Argon infolge Herabsetzung der Verdampfungsgeschwindigkeit vermieden. Nach erfolgter Formierung kann dann das Glas wieder evakuiert werden. Es ist jedoch bei dem Auspumpen darauf zu achten, dass eine sogenannte   Queeksilberfalle   vorgesehen sein muss. welche die Zelle vor Verunreinigung durch Quecksilber schützt.

  Process for the production of ultra-red sensitive selenium cells.



   It is known that photosensitive cells are of special composition. z. B. Selenium tellurium, have the property of changing their electrical resistance under the influence of the ultrared radiation, so that they are suitable for the detection of very low radiation intensities in the ultrared due to their low inertia in connection with electrical amplifiers. As it is known that by the action of the atmosphere. especially due to the water vapor content of the air. the sensitivity of such cells as a result of chemical reactions deteriorates considerably over time. the finished cell is enclosed using a suitable holder in a completely airtight vessel which has an ultra-red permeable window.

   The air in the vessel is removed by using a suitable desiccant, e.g. B. phosphorus pentoxide. completely cleaned of water vapor or the cell is evacuated. The invention relates to a method for the production of ultra-red sensitive selenium cells which avoids certain disadvantages of the known and consists in that the cell is formed in an atmosphere of inert gas. which is possibly pumped out again after formation.



   The following process has proven particularly useful for thermally forming cells.



  After the ultra-red-sensitive material has been applied to the cell in a suitable manner (e.g. by cathode sputtering), it is melted into a container made of ultra-red-permeable glass or quartz glass, a vacuum-sealed power supply to the cell and a stable holder being provided. The vessel is evacuated and, according to the invention, filled with carefully cleaned inert gas, in particular argon, at a suitable pressure. Argon has proven particularly useful here.



  This is because the evaporation of the ultra-red-sensitive layer which otherwise occurs during thermal formation is avoided by the use of argon as a result of a reduction in the evaporation rate. After forming, the glass can then be evacuated again. However, when pumping out, it is important to ensure that a so-called queek silver trap is provided. which protects the cell from contamination by mercury.

1. Process for the production of ultra-red sensitive selenium cells, characterized in that the cell is formed in an atmosphere of inert gas. which is possibly pumped out again after formation.
