This material displayed a high-speed photovoltaic response to picosecond laser excitations: measurement-limited subnanosecond photovoltaic response times were observed for laser photon energies less than the 6H-Sic band gap energy. The photovoltaic response. as a function of laser wavelength and beam spatial position within the switching gap, was measured, along with the photo-catrier lifetime and optical absorption coefficient. The data show that the measured photovoltage is a sensitive function of both spatial position and optical absorption depth. Hypothetical arguments are presented that qualitatively explain the observed photovoltaic effects.","PeriodicalId":355387,"journal":{"name":"1993 IEEE Princeton Section Sarnoff Symposium","volume":"1 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1993-03-26","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"128945311","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
