A photodiode is a transducer that takes light energy and converts it into electrical energy. If placed in a dark room, the photodiode is exposed to no light; therefore it creates no electricity. However, if light falls upon it, it takes the light energy and produces electric current in response.A photodiode conducts electric current directly proportional to the amount of light that falls upon it.ow to Connect a Photodiode to a Circuit. A photodiode operates in a circuit in reverse bias. This means that the anode connects to ground of the circuit and the cathode connects to the positive voltage supply of the circuit.
A photoreceptor cell is a specialized type of neuron found in the retina that is capable of phototransduction.The great biological importance of photoreceptors is that they convert light (visible electromagnetic radiation) into signals that can stimulate biological processes.To be more specific, photoreceptor proteins in the cell absorb photons, triggering a change in the cell's membrane potential.The two classic photoreceptor cells are rods and cones, each contributing information used by the visual system to form a representation of the visual world, sight.he function of the photoreceptor cell is to convert the light energy of the photon into a form of energy communicable to the nervous system and readily usable to the organism: This conversion is called signal transduction.
