Abstract
Bulk GaAs has undergone extensive research by several groups in order to ascertain its usefulness as a room temperature radiation spectromet er. The results of an experimental program studying the properties of detectors fabricated from bulk GaAs are summarized in this paper. Elec tric field models of the active region are compared with measured resu lts. Limitations of bulk LEC GaAs as a material for radiation spectrom eters are discussed.
