Abstract:In this paper we show how the characteristics of semiconductor (SC) material with very short carriers trapping time impact the performances of ultrafast optoelectronic devices used for generation and detection of radiofrequency or TeraHertz signals. The impact of properties such as concentration of deep‐level trapping centres, free carrier drift velocity saturation and long time relaxation of deep‐level trapping centres are studied. For devices based on low‐temperature grown GaAs we observe that working above … Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
