Abstract

A photoresistor comprises two electrodes connected by a photosensitive layer of the photoresistor, and at least one additional layer which is in contact with the photosensitive layer in order to influence the behavior of the photoresistor regarding carrier collection between the two electrodes, in order to improve the sensitivity of the photoresistor.
