Photovoltaic tracking sensor monitoring the position of the sun in the sky was developed on the
basis of GeS:Sb layered crystals. The operating principle of this sensor is based on the phenomenon
of photovoltaic effect in GeS:Sb crystals; the magnitude and sign of generated photo-emf depend
on the position of the light probe relative to the ohmic contacts, deposited on (001) surface
of the crystal.
