title: Fast response of InSb Schottky detector.
abstract: An InSb Schottky detector, fabricated from an undoped InSb wafer with Hall mobility which is higher than those of previously employed InSb wafers, was used for alpha particle detection. The output pulse of this InSb detector showed a very fast rise time, which was comparable with the output pulses of scintillation detectors.
