The possibility of using the transverse acoustoelectric phenomena in experimental investigations of near surface region in semiconductor crystals was discussed. The results of experimental investigations of GaP:Te(111) surfaces by means of the transverse acoustoelectric voltage were presented. Applying the transverse acoustoelectric voltage method, the lifetime τ of minority carrier in the near surface region and the surface potential Vs in GaP:Te(111) surfaces after their different technological treatments were determined.
