    In this letter it is pointed out that a substantial improvement in the effective quantum efficiency of ordinary photodetectors can be obtained by simply tilting the detector surface to Brewster's angle. The technique is best applied to laser heterodyne systems in which the light is linearly polarized, and for which the quantum efficiency directly determines the system sensitivity.
