  • Abstract
    A novel optoelectronic autocorrelation technique for measuring picosecond lifetimes in semiconductors is described. The technique is based on the nonlinearity of the photovoltage dependence on the optical excitation level. Numerical simulation as well as experimental results for low-temperature epitaxial InGaAs samples are presented.
