Image for Light-sensitive materials

Light-sensitive materials

Light-sensitive materials are substances that change their properties when exposed to light. They are used in technologies like photographic films, sensors, and solar cells to detect or react to light. When light hits these materials, it can cause chemical or physical changes, such as creating an image in film or generating electricity in solar panels. These materials are essential for capturing images, measuring light levels, and converting sunlight into usable energy, playing a vital role in imaging, communication, and renewable energy applications.
