Abstract
Abstract The simple theory of the surface photovoltage induced by photostimulated electron transitions from the bulk impurity levels is given. The relevant calculations show that the surface barrier height, the concentration of the impurity levels and the trapping process at the surface effectively control this phenomenon. Under the proper conditions, a very low excitation level in the bulk can generate significant surface photovoltage signals.
