摘要: A diagnostic technique has been developed which allows us to record the temporal and spatial development of such external parameters as electric field, temperature electron-hole density in gallium arsenide photoconductive switches. An electrical breakdown due a current filament was found cause permanent at constant forward voltage after laser activation. The with densities exceeding 60 kA/cm2 originates anode causesing damage form resistive spike this contact. Successive shots filamentary mode lead pattern spreading over surface ultimately could limit lifetime switch.
