Optimum conditioning of PbSe photoconductive detectors in measurements without chopping

Electrical and thermoelectric properties of PbSe doped with Sm

“…They have been used as sensors for infrared radiation, photoresistor, lasers, solar cells, optoelectronic devices and thermoelectric devices [1][2][3][4][5][6][7][8][9]. Thermoelectric devices have been used practically in wider areas recently, such as in consumer products like small refrigerators and in high-tech applications like in cooling units for fiber junctions in optical fiber communication technology [10,11].…”

Optical studies on Zn-doped lead chalcogenide (PbSe)100−xZnx thin films composed of nanoparticles

“…This may be due to the formation of high energy tails extending well beyond the band gap. This high energy contribution is due to the electronhole recombination [4]. PL spectra of thin film of (PbSe) 100 − x Zn x nanoparticles after laserirradiation for 5 min is shown in Fig.…”

“…Lead Chalcogenides have been promising materials due to their numerous applications in the field of IR-detector, sensors, solar cells, photoresistor, thermoelectric devices etc. Many recent applications such as IR-emitter, solar control coatings have also drawn renewed attention in these materials [1][2][3][4][5][6][7]. Lead chalcogenides have narrow band-gap, high dielectric constant, high transmittance and high carrier mobility [8][9].…”

Visible-active photocatalytic behaviors observed in nanostructured lead chalcogenides PbX (X = S, Se, Te)

“…[15][16][17] These unusual characteristics make them practical in various technological applications, such as infrared opto-electronic devices, thermoelectric devices, photo-voltaic cells, infrared lasers and light-emitting devices. [18][19][20][21][22][23][24] Narrow band gaps and high carrier mobilities identify lead chalcogenides potential materials for photocatalysis.…”
