Abstract
The electrical characteristics of diodes formed of epitaxial layers of gallium arsenide doped with iron during growth from the gas phase are studied. It is shown that these diodes have an s-shaped current-voltage characteristic and can be used as high speed switches with switching times of 10−10 sec.
