Abstract
An analytical expression for the prompt time response is compared with available data of prompt cures using surface-barrier detectors, yielding a relation for T¿ = 0.33 ¿1/¿n = 0.40 ¿2 ¿n/N where ¿1, ¿2 rise and decay times of single-electron response, n/N is the optimum value at minimum time resolution. A preliminary method is proposed for computing the plasma time in these detectors.
