Abstract

The motivation for investigating the use of GaAs as a material for detecting particles in experiments for high-energy physics (HEP) arose from its perceived resistance to radiation damage. This is a vital requirement for detector materials that are to be used in experiments at future accelerators where the radiation environments would exclude all but the most radiation resistant of detector types.
