Abstract
The dependence of dc photocurrents generated by moving optical interfe rence patterns inside two-sign charge carrier photoconductive semicond uctors with deep level traps on fringe spacing and velocity was determ ined. Sign reversal of the photocurrent as the grating spacing varies was predicted and verified experimentally in an InP:Fe crystal. Materi al characteristics for InP:Fe and CdTe:V samples were also determined using this effect.
