Description

A device is described for producing video images from localized photocurrent measurements on electrode surfaces. Images generated from photoinduced electron-hole pair currents in passivating oxide layers on polycrystalline titanium and high resistance polycrystalline GaP photoelectrodes are shown as examples. The applicability of this device for producing images from other optically induced effects is also discussed. It is proposed that the localized heating from a focused laser beam can be used to image the current distribution on metal electrodes
