[Auszug] We have found that the semiconductor gallium arsenide with resistivity at room temperature exceeding 108 ohm-cm, is an efficient particle counter. When a bar of this material is bombarded with y-radiation from cobalt-60, pulses of charge are readily observed. The time for the pulse-rise is about 5 ...
