Abstract
Photoelectric properties of Pb1-x-ySnxGeyTe:In epitaxial single-crysta l films were measured in the temperature range 10-80 K at background r adiation fluxes from 10(12) to 10(18) cm(-2) s(-1). The Lifetime of no n equilibrium electrons was found to depend on composition, temperatur e, and background flux. We propose a model for slow photocurrent relax ation in the films studied and calculate threshold parameters of charg e-accumulation array photodetectors.
