The phenomenon of photoconductivity occurs when an incident light shown upon a semiconductor causes an increase in its electrical conductivity. This is because of the excitation of electrons across the energy gap into the conduction band, which leads to an increase in the number of free carriers in the conduction band, hence, an increase in the conductivity of the semiconductor. Here, we can study the characteristics of the CdS photoresistor under different conditions of light intensity and applied voltage.
