Conclusions
In conclusion, we point out that II-IV-V2 semiconductors with the chalcopyrite lattice have served as the object of fundamental studies of the polarization photosensitivity performed in recent years and the physical principles for creating semiconductor photodetectors of a new type have been formulated. One can hope that the basic laws governing the photopleochroism of diamond-like semiconductors, determined for single crystals and different diode structures consisting of II-IV-V2 compounds, will be quite general and will find application to anisotropic materials belonging to different crystalline classes. It is of interest to construct a general theory of the polarization photosensitivity of uniform crystals and potential barriers. It is desirable to develop further the technology for growing single crystals of anisotropic semiconductors with the required crystallographic orientation.
