  • Abstract
    Planar photoconductors made with GaAs on silicon substrate have been studied with respect to static and dynamic responsivities as well as noise levels, in the 1 Hz-100 kHz frequency range. The results obtained have led to the determination of the specific detectivity which is in turn compared to those of GaAs planar photoconductors and Si photodiodes.
