  • Abstract
    In the work, evidence and role of minority carrier extraction at the high defect concentration interface metal-semi-insulating (SI) GaAs is presented. Improvement of performance of radiation detector based on SI GaAs if extraction system is used as quasi-ohmic "back" electrode is demonstrated.
