    This document discusses different types of optical detectors and transducers. It describes natural and man-made optical detectors. The main types of optical sensors discussed are photoemissive cells, semiconductor photoelectric transducers, and thermal sensors. Photoemissive cells can be vacuum or gas-filled types. Semiconductor photoelectric transducers include photo diodes, photo transistors, and photovoltaic cells. Thermal sensors involve devices like thermopiles and bolometers that detect changes in temperature or resistance corresponding to radiation energy. The document provides details on the operating principles and examples of different optical detector technologies.
