Abstract

The polarization method for studying photoactive absorption is used to investigate the photoconversion processes in CdS/InP heterojunctions as a function of the orientation of the indium phosphide substrate. The results of these investigations demonstrate the sensitivity of the photoelectric processes to several factors, including the crystallographic orientation of the p-type InP substrate and the optical quality of the CdS layer. The induced photopleochroism coefficient of these heterojunctions increases proportionally to the square of the angle of incidence (PI∼Θ2). Such CdS/InP heterojunctions can be employed as polarization-photosensitive devices.
