Abstract

We report our results of experimental study of photovoltage induced by pulsed CO2 laser in GaAs p-n and 1-h junctions. We demonstrate that photoemission of hot carriers across the potential barrier and the crystal lattice heating are the dominant mechanisms in the photovoltage formation. The obtained results show that hot-carrier effects in inhomogeneous GaAs can be used to detect very short infrared laser pulses.
