Popis: In this paper we describe the characteristics of two photodiodes which make them very useful for pulse radiolysis studies. These detectors are the EG & G SHS-100 Si photodiode and the Barnes room temperature A-100 InAs photodiode. The former has a linear output up to at least 6·5 mA, has a 0–98% response time ≌ 15 ns and is distinguished from Si photodiodes previously described by having no detectable slow component to its response. The 0–98% response time of the A-100 photodiode and the circuit developed for it is about 60 ns, and it also shows no detectable slow response component. The output of the A-100 is linear up to at least 2 mA, and we have used it for absorption measurements between 450 and 3200 nm.
