  • Abstract
    The purpose of the letter is to show the capability of GaAs planar photoconductors for use as new detectors in spectroscopic systems. After a description of the devices, their optical properties are briefly reviewed in terms of external steady-state gain. An example of the application of these devices in a conventional Raman detection system and the performance of the photoconductor array in image detection are given
