Compound semiconductor photosensors are highly specialized optoelectronic devices that utilize compound semiconductors as their active sensing materials. Compound semiconductors are composed of two or more elements from different groups of the periodic table, such as gallium arsenide (GaAs), indium phosphide (InP), or cadmium telluride (CdTe), among others. These materials possess unique electronic and optical properties that make them well-suited for detecting and converting light into an electrical signal. When light of a specific wavelength and intensity impinges on the compound semiconductor within the photosensor, it excites electrons from the valence band to the conduction band, creating electron-hole pairs. This generation of charge carriers leads to a change in the electrical conductivity of the semiconductor, which can be measured as an electrical current or voltage output. Compound semiconductor photosensors are known for their high sensitivity, fast response times, and broad spectral range, enabling them to detect various forms of electromagnetic radiation, from ultraviolet to infrared light. They find applications in diverse fields, including optical communication systems, environmental monitoring, medical diagnostics, and industrial sensing, where accurate and reliable light detection is crucial.
