Effect of indium antimonide polarity in the external photoeffect in the X-ray region

  • Published:
Soviet Physics Journal Aims and scope

Abstract

When cleaved in the (111) plane, indium antimonide is polarized, the (111)A plane consists of indium atoms, while the (111)B plane consists of antimony atoms. The effect of the polarity on the photocurrent has been studied. The quantum yield is reported for both planes, and the energy spectrum of the Auger electrons is analyzed.
