Photosensitive films were prepared by the flash evaporation of CdSe. Two types of samples have been examined : one was of Cu-activated CdSe, the other was of Cu-activated CdSe-CdCl
2 mixtures.
The following properties of evaporated CdSe films were investigated : dependence of photoconductivity upon film composition and its densities, X-ray diffraction, photosensitive characteristics.
The results of these mesurements indicated that photosensitivity increases with Cu and CdCl
2 density, CdSe film was polycrystalline substance (being hexagonal), the relation of light intensity to photocurrent was super-linear, and that the time constant was smaller in comparision with sintered CdSe layer.
