Abstract
A photoconductive detector array is formed in a single body of semiconductor material. The individual photoconductive detectors are formed by regions of first conductivity type. The bulk of the semiconductor body is of a second conductivity type, thereby electrically isolating the individual photoconductive detectors from one another. This detector array is easier to fabricate than prior art detector arrays, and has unique signal enhancement properties.
