  • Abstract
    Detailed studies of noise properties and dynamic responsivity of GaAs planar photoconductors have been made in the 1 Hz-100 kHz frequency range. The results obtained lead to the determination of the specific detectivity of the devices, which in turn is compared to that of Si photodiodes
