Hole photocurrent dynamics in HR-GaAs:Cr ionizing radiation sensors
The results of a study of hole transport in chromium-compensated gallium arsenide (HR-GaAs:Cr) sensors using a transient current technique and a numerical simulation of the photoresponse of an HR-GaAs:Cr sensor to a single pulse of infrared radiation are presented. The objects of research are the HR-GaAs:Cr sensors with a mesh metal contact to which a positive potential is applied. It is established that when the sensor is irradiated from the mesh anode, the electrons drift in the horizontal direction to the sensor strips, leading to the formation of a photocurrent pulse in the electrical circuit with a duration shorter than 1 ns. The observed areas of exponential decay of the photocurrent at the pulse trailing edges are attributed to the drift of holes towards the sensor cathode, accompanied by their capture by negatively charged chromium centers. Based on the results obtained, the lifetime of holes in the samples under study is determined.
