Abstract

Transient ionization processes occurring in a low-barrier GaAs Mott diode under the influence of heavy charged particles from outer space and laser pulses that imitate such particles are analyzed theoretically. The response of a diode to the influence of an As+ ion with an energy of 200 MeV, which corresponds to a linear energy transfer of 26 MeV cm2/mg, is compared with the response to the influence of optical radiation pulses of various durations (10–1000 fs) with a photon energy exceeding the band gap of GaAs.
