Optical Sensors - Phototransistors

A phototransistor is an optoelectronic device that combines some of the properties of ordinary transistors and light-sensitive diodes. It is a semiconductor device designed to amplify or switch light signals. Phototransistors are made from a variety of materials, including silicon, gallium arsenide, and germanium. Phototransistors are commonly used to detect infrared (IR), ultraviolet (UV), or visible light, and convert the light energy into electrical signals, which can then be processed and used to create or control devices.
