Abstract

We report photocollection efficiency measurements of p + in GaAs! AIAs!GaAs diodes fabricated on films grown by molecular beam epitaxy, Both the zero-bias and bias-dependent photocollection characteristics can be explained by assuming that the band discontinuity between AlAs and GaAs is mostly accommodated i.n the valence band.
