Abstract

Increase of the photosensitivity of the pSi-n(Si2)1 − x (ZnSe) x (0 ≤ x ≤ 0.01) structure exposed to gamma radiation with photon energy E ph ≥ 2.3 eV has been demonstrated. It is shown that irradiation with dose up to 104 rad raises and radiation with dose up to 105 rad reduces the forward current of the pSi-n(Si2)1 − x (ZnSe) x structure.
