摘要
The aim of the present work is to systematically investigate the response and stability of commercial GaAs devices in the 200-400 nm UV range with a view to establishing their potentiality in imaging devices. The irradiation results of GaAs detectors with various geometries are presented and discussed. The detectors were reverse biased in fully depleted condition and in partially depleted condition (5 V reverse bias) in order to investigate the possibilities of integration with the standard bias values of read-out-integrated circuits. The results show that fabrication technology for nondedicated devices is still immature. (C) 2002 American Institute of Physics.
