Willoughby Smith (6 April 1828, in Great Yarmouth, Norfolk – 17 July 1891, in Eastbourne, Sussex) was an English electrical engineer who discovered the photoconductivity of the element selenium. This discovery led to the invention of photoelectric cells, including those used in the earliest television systems.

rdfs:comment	ويلوبي سميث (بالإنجليزية: Willoughby Smith)‏ هو مهندس كهرباء إنجليزي عاش في القرن التاسع عشر، وينسب إليه اكتشاف خاصية الموصلية الضوئية لعنصر السيلينيوم. ولد ويلوبي سميث في السادس من أبريل سنة 1828 وعمل في شركة كابلات في لندن، والتي كانت تستخدم أسلاك من النحاس والحديد معزولة بالطبرخي (الغاتابرشا) لتمديدات التلغراف. نشر أبحاثه عن ظاهرة الموصلية الضوئية للسيلينيوم سنة 1873. توفي ويلوبي سميث في السابع عشر من يوليو سنة 1891 في مدينة إيستبورن. (ar) Willoughby Smith (6 d'abril de 1828, a Great Yarmouth, Norfolk – 17 de juliol de 1891, a Eastbourne, Sussex) va ser un enginyer elèctric anglès que va descobrir la fotoconductivitat de l'element seleni. Aquest descobriment va portar a la invenció de les cèl·lules fotoelèctriques, incloses les utilitzades en els primers sistemes de televisió. (ca) Willoughby Smith (* 6.
