Surface photoconductivity of thin, anodically grown ZnO layers, separa
ted from the maternal zinc substrate and glued onto a slice of organic
glass, has been investigated. The effect of spectral sensitization wi
th erythrosin on the photoconductivity of anodic ZnO layers has alo be
en studied. The width of the forbidden energy gap in investigated mate
rial, estimated from the experimentally determined spectral distributi
on of the photosensitivity equals 3.3. eV.
