The design of novel photodetectors based on semiconductor nanowires with diameters of few hundred nanometers or below may lead to a significant enhancement of the photoconductive gain and an increase of the detection speed in comparison to the corresponding planar technology. However, a precise quantification of the photodetection performance of such devices requires the development of a metrological procedure for their calibration. In this contribution, we discuss the main challenges and the steps which are required, in order to achieve this goal. In particular, we propose an experimental approach which combines optical and electrical methods for the determination of a two-dimensional, spatially resolved mapping of the device*s photoresponse. We focus the investigation in particular on contacted single GaAs nanowires, which act as photodetectors in the near infrared spectral range.
