✦ Synopsis


In the present work, a comparative study of semi-insulating (SI) GaAs radiation detectors with different blocking (Schottky) and ohmic contact metallization is presented. The detectors fabricated from ''detector-grade'' bulk SI GaAs are characterized by current-voltage measurements and their detection performance is evaluated from pulse-height spectra of 241 Am and 57 Co g-sources.

Observed results are evaluated and discussed. Importance of the optimized electrodes technology of SI GaAs detector with good performance is demonstrated.

In this work, we concentrate on the study of the role of ohmic electrode metallization of radiation imaging detectors based on bulk semi-insulating (SI) GaAs. We fabricated SI GaAs radiation detectors with Ti/Pt/Au Schottky contact on one side and In/Au, Mg/Au and Gd/Au contacts on the other side of
