Abstract The photocurrent and spectral response characteristics of gallium arsenide (GaAs) are obtained by a multi-information measurement system, and the evolution of the photocurrent versus the Cs:O flux ratio is investigated. The experimental results show that the photocurrent increases approximately exponentially after the first exposure to Cs until a maximum sensitivity is reached, the detailed evolution process and the ultimate photocurrent are different for different samples. These differences are analysed, and according to the process of coadsorption of Cs and oxygen on GaAs, an equation is presented to explain the increase of photocurrent.
