What units ? - Siemens per watt of incident energy ??

A commercial PbS photdetector has sensitivity characterised as 100,000 V/W, Peak sensitivity wavelength 2.2 μm.

How large is the effect for different materials, different frequencies etc ? - Rod57 (talk) 21:49, 30 August 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Section on 'magnetic photoconductivity' references article on photovoltaics. Is this relevant? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 66.44.63.90 (talk) 19:39, 8 November 2018 (UTC)[reply]

It seems to me that reverse biased pn junctions are not photoconductors in the sense of this article. A recent edit to photodetector seems to miss this distinction. I wonder what readers here think about this? Gah4 (talk) 20:15, 29 April 2019 (UTC)[reply]
