摘要
The problem of using a photoplasma to directly convert the energy of light into electric energy is investigated theoretically. It is shown that the photo-emf is generated due to the ambipolar potential difference caused by the nonuniform ionization of alkali metal vapor by optical radiation. The current-voltage characteristic is calculated and the efficiency is estimated of a plasma photoconverter with plane electrodes. (C) 2004 MAIK "Nauka/Interperiodica".
