Influence of built-in electric filed on the energy and emergence angle spreads of transmission-mode GaAs photocathode

In order to research the transport characteristic of photoelectrons in different-structure transmission-mode GaAs photocathodes, the energy and emergence angle spreads of photoelectrons reaching the band-bending region are calculated and the photoemission properties are analyzed. Based on the established atomic configuration models and ionized impurity scattering formulas of the uniform-doping and exponential-doping photocathodes, the trajectories of photoelectrons in different GaAs photocathodes have been calculated. The results show that, the emergence angle spread of the exponential-doping photocathode is more centralized than that of the uniform-doping one. The influence of the built-in electric field on the photoemission is obvious in the short-wave region. The built-in electric field not only increases the quantum efficient, but also improves the resolution of photocathode. This research can be propitious to investigate the photoemission mechanism, and to analyze the effect of the excited photoelectrons on the image intensifier performance.

Early research has shown that the varied doping structures of the active layer of GaAs photocathodes have been proven to have a higher quantum efficiency than uniform doping structures.On the basis of our early research on the surface photovoltage of GaAs photocathodes,and comparative research before and after activation of reflection-mode GaAs photocathodes,we further the comparative research on transmission-mode GaAs photocathodes.An exponential doping structure is the typical varied doping structure that can form a uniform electric field in the active layer.By solving the one-dimensional diffusion equation for no equilibrium minority carriers of transmission-mode GaAs photocathodes of the exponential doping structure,we can obtain the equations for the surface photovoltage(SPV) curve before activation and the spectral response curve(SRC) after activation.Through experiments and fitting calculations for the designed material,the body-material parameters can be well fitted by the SPV before activation,and proven by the fitting calculation for SRC after activation.Through the comparative research before and after activation,the average surface escape probability(SEP) can also be well fitted.This comparative research method can measure the body parameters and the value of SEP for the transmission-mode GaAs photocathode more exactly than the early method,which only measures the body parameters by SRC after activation.It can also help us to deeply study and exactly measure the parameters of the varied doping structures for transmission-mode GaAs photocathodes,and optimize the Cs-O activation technique in the future.     

Comparative research on the transmission-mode GaAs photocathodes of exponential-doping structures

Early research has shown that the varied doping structures of the active layer of GaAs photocathodes have been proven to have a higher quantum efficiency than uniform doping structures. On the basis of our early research on the surface photovoltage of GaAs photocathodes, and comparative research before and after activation of reflection-mode GaAs photocathodes, we further the comparative research on transmission-mode GaAs photocathodes. An exponential doping structure is the typical varied doping structure that can form a uniform electric field in the active layer. By solving the one-dimensional diffusion equation for no equilibrium minority carriers of transmission-mode GaAs photocathodes of the exponential doping structure, we can obtain the equations for the surface photovoltage (SPV) curve before activation and the spectral response curve (SRC) after activation. Through experiments and fitting calculations for the designed material, the body-material parameters can be well fitted by the SPV before activation, and proven by the fitting calculation for SRC after activation. Through the comparative research before and after activation, the average surface escape probability (SEP) can also be well fitted. This comparative research method can measure the body parameters and the value of SEP for the transmission-mode GaAs photocathode more exactly than the early method, which only measures the body parameters by SRC after activation. It can also help us to deeply study and exactly measure the parameters of the varied doping structures for transmission-mode GaAs photocathodes, and optimize the Cs-O activation technique in the future.     

Comparative research for transmission-mode GaAs photocathodes of different doping structures on surface photovoltage

In order to well study the internal body performance for transmission-mode GaAs photocathode of different varied doping structures, two GaAs photocathodes of exponential doping structure and gradient doping structure were designed respectively. Because surface photovoltage spectrum has close relation with the internal properties of GaAs photocathodes, the connection between surface photovoltage and internal electronic field was well discussed through deduction and calculation. The difference of two structures and the value of internal electronic energy were exactly calculated and verified by experiments. The internal band bending energy could form an internal electronic field with the same direction, which could help the photo-excited electrons to move toward surface barrier layer. This research shows a better method to well study the varied doping structures for GaAs photocathode materials and will help to improve the growth structure for transmission-mode GaAs photocathode module in the future.
