Global Photoconductive Cell Market Growth 2025-2031

The global Photoconductive Cell market size is predicted to grow from US$ million in 2025 to US$ million in 2031; it is expected to grow at a CAGR of %from 2025 to 2031.

A photoconductive cell, also known as a photocell or a photoresistor, is a type of light-sensitive resistor that changes its resistance based on the intensity of light falling on its surface. It is made of a semiconductor material, typically cadmium sulfide (CdS) or lead sulfide (PbS), which exhibits photoconductivity.

When light strikes the surface of a photoconductive cell, the photons in the light excite the electrons in the semiconductor material, causing them to move from the valence band to the conduction band. This increases the conductivity of the material, resulting in a decrease in resistance. Conversely, when the light intensity decreases, the electrons return to the valence band, reducing the conductivity and increasing the resistance.

Photoconductive cells are commonly used in various applications, such as light meters, automatic streetlights, camera exposure control, and optical sensors. They provide a simple and cost-effective way to measure and control light levels in electronic circuits.
