Radiation Induced Damage in GaAs Particle Detectors
arXiv:physics/9709034 · doi:10.1109/23.633422
Abstract
The motivation for investigating the use of GaAs as a material for detecting particles in experiments for High Energy Physics (HEP) arose from its perceived resistance to radiation damage. This is a vital requirement for detector materials that are to be used in experiments at future accelerators where the radiation environments would exclude all but the most radiation resistant of detector types.
