Abstract

Diffused diodes, fabricated from plastically deformed germanium, were examined for high-speed switching response. The degradation of minority carrier lifetime caused by dislocations generated during plastic deformation greatly reduced the minority carrier storage effect and permitted fabrication of diodes with turnoff times of the order of 10−9 sec.
