THEORY:-
1.) LDR and its characteristics when light is
incident on it, a photon is absorbed and thereby it
excites an electron from valence band into
conduction band. Due to such new electrons
coming up in conduction band area, the electrical
resistance of the device decreases. Thus the LDR
or photo- conductive transducer has the resistance
which is the inverse function of radiation
intensity.

CONCLUSION:-
The LDR resistance decreases with increase
in intensity of light and hence there is an
increase in the flow of current.
