Abstract :
A super-Schottky contact diode made of Nb on heavily doped p-GaAs has been fabricated by electron-beam deposition under high vacuum, resulting in a long life and very reliable characteristics with estimated detector current responsivity S¿1500 V¿1 and NEP ¿ 1.2 à 10¿15 w/¿HZ at 4.2 K under optimum bias conditions.
