Definitions

  • This invention relates to photo-electric cells, and more particularly to new and useful methods of manufacturing blocking layer photo-electric cells.
  • the present invention has for an object to pe t di rent service conditions may be 80V- provide new methods of manufacturing photome -at will by correspondingly dimensionin electric cells of the above-mentioned type, acthe thickness of the non-conductive comp cording to which the production of such cells may and by governing t e r of penetration 0 the be considerably simplified and the properties of reductive or disintegra n me m. the product resulting therefrom be essentially In applying the now disclosed method to blockimproved.
  • a semi- W i claimed is: conductive layer B overlaying a metallic base e m thod of m nufa urin blockin layplate A constituting one of the electrodes of the Photo-electric cells which comprises. pp yi photo-electric cellstohe produced, is coated, prefby p riz ion a thin layer of cadmium oxide erably by vaporizatiomwith athin layer C 1 40 on the light-sensitive semi-conducting layer of s ltable electrically non-conductive metallic Selenium verlayi a metallic base plate.
