Abstract

795,877. Photo-conductive devices. BRITISH THOMSON-HOUSTON CO., Ltd. May 14, 1956 [May 26, 1955], No. 15256/55. Class 37. [Also in Group XL (a)] The photo-conductive and phosphor materials of a radiation amplifier or converter are dispersed in glass as layers separated by a coherent wafer of high specific inductive capacity. A wafer 11 of pojycrystalline titanium dioxide or barium titanate has a photo-conducting layer 10, e.g. selenilun, antimony trisulphide or cadmium sulphide, formed on one side and on the other an electroluminescent layer 14, e.g. copper or manganeseactivated zinc sulphide. Transparent conductive layers 12, 15 are formed on opposite sides of the wafer and carry terminals 13, 16 respectively. An opaque layer of high resistivity or of low resistivity material applied as discrete areas or suspended in a methacrylate resin, may be interposed between layers 10, 14 to prevent feedback. The photo-conducting and phosphor materials may be finely-divided and dispersed in a boro-phosphate glass of low melting point. The conducting layers 12, 15 may be formed on glass plates acting as supports for the wafer (Fig. 2, not shown). A moisture sealing coating of varnish or resin may cover the assembly.
