Abstract

Based on estimation of the depletion of excitation centers in semiconductor photodetectors, the opportunity of saturation of their sensitivity under intense illumination is demonstrated. Formulas are derived that allow the parameters of intense illumination causing the complete quenching of photodetector sensitivity to be quantitatively estimated. The experiments on the illumination ofPbS photoresistors by laser radiation confirm the theoretical estimates.
