Abstract :
The perspective of use of radiation-stable semiconductor compounds with loose crystal structures for development of solid state devices is discussed. The theoretical possibility of creation of active electronic elements based on semiconductors of this type is shown. A feasible implementation of the solid-state amplifier on the basis of thin-film heterostructures of intrinsic semiconductors is suggested and its parameters are calculated
